From this we can make the right choices for aircrew. Mainly, this is so that the RAFv Student to Instructor ratio does not become too high.

Pilots fly a number of aircraft such as Fighters, Bombers, Transport and Refuelling Aircraft. Air/Ground Roles Fighter Controller - A New role for FS2002 will be used on E-3 Sentrys. Fighter Controllers will first be recruited from ATC controllers with Direct Entrants. Air Traffic Controller - ATC Controllers operate at all RAFv airfields when flying is taking place. It is a rewarding role especially when there are 5+ aircraft in the circuit! |
