To quote from that site....

These standards are subject to alteration without notice and no responsibility for consequences arising as a result of these changes can be accepted by the Ministry of Defence (Air). The decision as to the individual’s fitness is the prerogative of the Medical Board which examines him/her.

As I said before, the most accurate place to find out about the eyesight requirementsis at your local AFCO.

I thought the fireman trade in the R.A.F was defunct and farmed out to civvy firms

Is this not the case ?
