I was born in Peshawar, Pakistan but moved to the UK when i was 2 years old.
I am a full british national and a Pakistani national.

I hold both passports and have dual nationality.

I wear glasses but only for long distances and for electronic screens.

I want to become a pilot because my father was in the PAF and i want to join aswell.

I speak fluent Urdu and Pashto but have limited literacy skills in both. I also speak fluent english and can read and write confidently.
I want to know if I am eligibly to become a pilot.

I have a good grade targets (A*'s + A's)

I know that i can pass all the other criteria but am not sure whether i can join due to my eyesight.
 
Dual Nationality isn't allowed in any Government Job including the Armed Forces !

You might have to relinquish one of them ! :)

I was not talking about you , was referring to AZ
 
Your ability to speak languages would matter less. Like all PAF prospective candidates you have to appear for ISSB first. And in any case you will have to give up your British citizenship. Remind you, there is no guarantee that you will be able to become a fighter pilot. One small screw up and you would flying transport/vip jets. If you think you have what it takes, by all means, go ahead and appear for ISSB.
 
To become a fighter pilot you should have

1. Your physics should be excellent.
2. You should posses disciplined lifestyle.
3. You should be physically super fit from every perspective.
4. Good grades in academic record to decide how much responsible you are.
5. You should be a Pakistani national purely.
6. No criminal record at all.
7. Good English speaking, listening, writing skills.
8. Should have mental alertness, with the good capacity to focus on the given tasks.

You can also join Air force as an aeronautical engineer, in which medical standards are not as much high as required for GD pilots.

If you eyesight is weak .. then i am sorry you can not become a Fighter Pilot .
 
Eye sight should be perfect without glasses.

Language is not a problem.


You would be required to renounce your British nationality, just before you passout from PAF Academy, not before that i.e. once it almost confirm that you will get commissioned. This is to ensure that if you are withdrawn from the academy for any reason, you does not lose yoir nationality for nothing.
