I would like to join the RSAF as an Airforce pilot. Currently, I am a Junior College student and will be completing my GCE A level examinations in December this year. I will be enlisting for NS in February 2012.
I would like to enquire if I am apply to apply as a pilot online( I would not have obtained by A level results) before enlistment. As a PR, does applying early before NS stand me a chance to enter Airforce as a pilot. I have seen some who have applied before release of results.
Thanks your responses and replies.
Hi i think its better to do it early. However do prepared yourself for why you want to do this as a career.
Cheers
hey i will..
btw r u an airforce pilot?
DO you think i will lose my chance of becoming a pilot if i am a PR?
probably, they wouldn't take in PR for OCS in NS...
Are you a 1st or 2nd gen PR?
No I’m not an airforce pilot although back in my military days, i did try for it but failed during the interview. However, I do hope you’ll be able to make it and fulfil your dreams.
As far as I am concern, I dont think you’ll have any disadvantage going to OCS just because you not a citizen. Just do your best in army and try pushing yourself a little (of course not over your physical limits). Always have a positive attitude and just be yourself. If you can, try training yourself up before entering BMT because a high percentage of people getting gold for their IPPT’s end up in OCS.
Hope this helps and good luck with your flying :)
Similarly, where can I apply to get a private pilot's licence?
Really like to get one.
Sree, I think your question is best answered by an RSAF recruiter. I highly recommend that you give them a call.

Btw, how long did the RSAF take to reply after you've sent in your interest? Did they call you up or was it through email?
Good luck mate :)
Actually, I applied for the compass test through sms...there is this pilot compass sms stuff which i received during the air force open house. Anyway, they called me and told me to come down to CMPB for the test. all the best.
