Ok people, this topic has been going on for years.
Infact since I joined 4 years ago!
Evere since I have been trying to discover how to get hold of one of
these mystical BTECs. I am aware it is still possible. Will someone
please tell me how how how?!!?!??!?!? I am a staff cadet, my sqn and
wing appear to have no knowledge of this scheme what so ever other then
the fact that it does exist...somewhere...in some form.....and thats
all ive been told for the past god knows how long...despite trying at
every opertunity to find out more!
