RAF PRTC 3rd June 2014

Is anyone still waiting for their PRTC dates? I seem to have been waiting for ages.

If your trade only requires a level 1 in maths and English do you still have to sit the level 2 tests?

Lozza I'm 29 next month so age isn't kind to me, especially when I've got to hit the same as these 18-25 year olds!!!

If you need help getting fit just ask I'm a phase 2 now so I have had my fair share of PT sessions

How is trade training going? Enjoying it?
Less ppl a room?

Thanks, do u know if it has to be shorts for your fitness test on prtc? It says shorts on the list but wondered if any girls on your course wore the Lycra legging type sports wear (if u know what I mean) lol?? x

Why try and deviate from what it says? If it says shorts then it means shorts.

No need to be ****in arsey!!! I'm well aware it says shorts however having done time in the forces already I know that normally means decent sports wear and not jogging bottoms, also don't wanna buy shorts for 1 fitness test when I'm not gonna wear them again......as they get issue in basic training, if you have anything nice or productive to say then don't bother saying anything

But it says shorts. It doesn't say shorts... or whatever other sports wear you think might be acceptable.

I'm not trying to be 'arsey' as you put it, but it's fairly simple. We're given instructions and we follow them. The sooner we all learn that, the better.

That is true we do follow orders and I've already followed orders for 7 years in the Navy so I'm aware of how it works.....also why I'm aware that not everything said is to the letter which is why I asked in the first place, apologies if it wasn't meant that way but it came across arsey to me, not sure how far along in training u are or if you've been in long but good luck

Fair enough. I'm not even in training but the way I see it, the contents of a kit list aren't designed to be discussed on a forum and decided upon.

I've got my PRTC in a couple of weeks and while I'm aware there are probably a lot of things I don't need, I've got them any way just because it says so. With your history in the Navy, you'll appreciate that the selection process is basically just a big game. We just need to play by the rules.

Best of luck.

It is a big game it's a load of bull**** that u have to put with.....I plan on taking shorts with me anyway I was simply only asking the ppl who have already done it what ppl we're wearing that's all not a big issue really......there really no need to be so serious is all I'm saying, got mine on Tuesday so I'll find out soon enough, hope it goes well for u
