  Funny thing is, he doesn't seem to know why he wants to take up flying as a career and he doesn't ask many questions.

  for RSAF, u have to put up with those COCs, SAF day, Mess events etc etc
  
  for commercial, i tink the max is DnD with a couple more company events
  
  BTW, when u join RSAF there is no confirmation of wat aircraft u are flying. u may wanna fly a aeroplane, but they give u Super Puma.
  
  but if u join a commercial airliner, one thing for sure is u are going to fly their fleet of Airbus/Boeing
  
  despite all those, one good route is from RSAF fly for couple years for that experience and move on to commercial. i believe u have that advantage over non-RSAF applicants

  I also heard abt SIA side u wan to fly passenger plane.. they give u cargo contract..
  
  but the RSAF bond is 12 years i think.. very siong.. this is 1 consideration .. another consideration is failing the course.. cos RSAF the chop rate quite high.. scared i waste time..
