What happens if I pass my initial Fitness Test? Your AFCO will contact you with regards to the next stage of your application, which in most cases will be a date for PRFV( for Aviators) or Fam Visit( for Officers). The date for either of these will depend on the specialisation that you have applied for and could, in some cases, be several weeks or months away. It is incredibly important that you maintain your fitness levels in order to make sure you pass the next step of your application. You need to pass the PRFV and Fam Visit fitness tests to make it to Phase One training at Halton or Cranwell.
What happens if I fail my initial Fitness Test? Each candidate will be allowed 3 attempts to successfully complete the PJFT, MFBC will advise time-frames between fitness tests based on candidates results. By exception, candidates may be permitted to carry out further attempts dependent upon their progress and motivation, established through counselling. The decision to allow a fourth and any subsequent attempts is to be made by OCs. However, your application is subject to your continued eligibility and the availability of the specialisation( slots can be limited and you’ re not the only one applying for it), so it’ s in your best interest to pass first time and maintain your fitness.
