RAF IOT Questions and BAWC

1. Any tips or advice that current or ex Officers would give to yourself if you were to go through IOT again?

While not that recent...

The first few weeks are insane, but you get through them.
Don't kill yourself to get things done by sacrificing sleep - getting the odd restriction or two is no big deal.
The harder you work on the Phys in the build up, the better off you'll be.
Do your absolute best to "get into scenario" while on ex.


Don't worry about BAWC now, plenty of time for that later. It's designed for little to no prior knowledge. Read AP3000 / JDP 0-30 and you're fine.

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone who has recently gone through IOT or is currently on IOT can help out with a couple of questions I have. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

2.What is the Basic Air Warfare Course? How long is it? What do you learn?

Thanks

Hi, just wondering if you can completed IOT now? Could I pick your brains if you have? It states that you have medicals - what do these entail? Are they pass/fail medicals?
thanks.

I’ve already answered your questions, you have selection medical before IOT. This determines whether you are fit to serve and they will access your medical records.

During your subsequent career (including IOT) you will have an annual medical to ensure you are still fit for whatever job.

These are especially stringent of those directly involved in aviation.
