UN Forces Variable Fighter Test Pilot
OCC
The Variable Fighter Pilot is the most romantacised and sought after role within the UN Armed Forces. And none more so than the VF Test Pilot. Someone needs to test the new Variable Fighters of the UN Armed Forces, and only the best of the best are chosen. VF Test pilots are given the same training as other VF pilots but are trained in the full use of computers and aeronautical and aerospace engineering to help them better test and evaluate the fighters that they are conducting trials on. There are very few VF Test pilots and those that there are, are usually the brightest and best in the service. VF test pilots are rarely taken straight from basic training, as it is preferred to have veteran pilots in the testing role. However some pilots who are very gifted have been known to be taken on as test pilots straight from completing their 2 years of flight school, followed by a years design and testing training, the pilots minimum starting age would be 19.
Pre-requisite Requirements
IQ12, ME9, PE9, PS8, PP16 required as minimum,
higher preferred.
2 years VF training, and 1 years Test Pilot training.
