40 FLIGHT International, 21 May (944 HOW TO USE IT Do what David Busfield did, and your career could be like his: full of interest and variety. Read about it David Busfield could have told you exactly what he wanted from his career when he was 17 — variety, the chance to travel, work with a dash of excitement; good pay, good prospects. As a Royal Air Force officer, he gets all these things. Your G.C.E. could be the first step to a career like this. David Busfield is 22 now, co-pilot of a strategic reconnaissance Valiant. He likes the 'precision- instrument' feel of the job, and enjoys the travel : in the last two years he's been to Libya, Malta, Norway, New Guinea and Fiji; and he's spent two months in Australia. He is stationed in Huntingdonshire and his hobby is motoring—he runs a 'very special' car—and lives in the Officers' Mess. "I've got the ideal bachelor home, worth- while work to do, and I've made some wonderful friends," he says. "I can't imagine a civilian job that would give me half the satisfaction I get from Service life." In the R.A.F. at 21, you can earn over £1,000 a year. At 25, married and with full allow- ances, it could be over £1,900. You can leave at the 8 or 12 year point with a gratuity of up to £5,000. Serve for 16 years (or to 38) and you get a pension for life with a smaller gratuity. Or you may be selected to serve on till you're 55. To apply, you should be between 17 and 26, and hold, or expect to gain, 5 acceptable 'O' levels inc- luding English language and mathematics; you will have to satisfy a Selection Board that you have the .right qualities of intelligence, aptitude and potential leadership. Do this, and you could be commissioned and on your way this year. To find out more, send for the free book Flying and You. Write, giving date ofbirth and details of education, to Group Captain J. W.
