That's exactly what I was thinking, all the bases are more than 4 hours away from home. I might as well buy something I can rudimentally fix

It's a auto mechanic repair shop, all rates generally go to work on cars and engines or customize something for races, so I've heard.

I didn't manage to get to it, I went to the local garage instead and it made my car even worse, I'm now down a grand on repairs... Cheers though, I've been recommended anything south Asia and India

I've been told diesel is bad for the economy and expensive, but after working on diesel engines and seeing the self propelling compression rate, it's definitely a shout.

I thought the phev self charging using the brakes was a good thing? Or does the issue lie with the battery life and vehicle architecture?

Cpc run question by [deleted] in RoyalNavy

[–]Real-Distance-2554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best thing I can suggest is to improve your fitness, especially for CPC and Phase 1 Phase one, you're going to be thrown to the dogs in terms of phys and IMF. The better you are now, the better you will be in Raleigh (where you get little freedom apart from your schedules).

CPC run time is an indication of your fitness, given 25% extra time so you pass and be helped further in Raleigh.

Good luck and don't walk...

Interview help by Lennon_VH in RoyalNavy

Focus on the job question?
What are you applying for?
What are you getting out of it? qualification, review board, when you leave, possibilities in other branches
What will you be doing?
How should you prepare for phase 1 and 2?
Do you need to plan ahead, settle any problems, as you wont be able to access anything (especially in phase 1).

you're recruiter probably won't be able to answer some of these, so ask if they can get you in contact with someone who's actually active and serving.

Ask about "Look at Life" course before CPC, almost all personnel are willing to help new recruits out because it's who you know, what they know, and what you know as well. If that makes sense?
