AOSB Site Goes Live - Needs Your Help!
by James Billot - View Comments

speeddistancetime.info
I know what you're thinking: 'Hmm, this looks remarkably similar to speeddistancetime.info.' You're right! That's why I need your help.
I set up that site a few years back to help my girlfriend with her preparation for the RAF OASC (RAF equivalent to the AOSB - I know, Boo!) It worked - she's been in a while now, and just got back from Afghanistan (fun and games).
I get a fair amount of traffic to that site from all branches, and I was thinking that what's helpful for RAF bods probably isn't as helpful for those with their sights set on the other services.. so: Here's a site just for you Army types, and there'll be one along for the RN types soon as well.
Your Help Needed
At the moment, it's just a carbon-copy of the speeddistancetime.info tools and tests, but, I want to start moving them towards something more specific to the needs of the AOSB. For this I need your input:
- any questions/tasks in the AOSB that aren't/could be covered here?
- how can I change the existing tests to be a better fit (eg the current compass-bearings test is more for pilot aptitude.. how could I make it more relevant)?
- any info or links I could include that would be of use - like a resource page?
Please let me know any ideas/critques you may have - either in the comments below, or, via my feedback form (the button for which can be found at the bottom of most pages on this site).
I won't be able to include everything - I only do this as a 'hobby' - but, hope I can accommodate some.
As an extra favour - could I ask you to let others know about this site via forums, facebook, twitter or whatever (buttons below can help)? The more people and suggestions we can get on here, the better it can be!
Thanks,
James
