UK members... Anyone in the RAF Reserves?

As a follow on to a tread I started recently I've been looking into second jobs I could do alongside my main work.

I've looked into the Territorial Army in the past but have been sniffing about on yon 'tinterweb and started to think the RAF Reserves might suit me.

I think I'll give them a call in the morning but just wondered if any of you guys have served with them and what you thought.

Cheers, Mark.

...come to think of it, so will I so that works out well!

I knew I'd get some pain if I mentioned that bit!

I just hope that if I end up going for an interview I can keep a straight face!
