WsOP - What exactly does ISR entail? And how does streaming work

Hi all,

I’m thinking about RAF aircrew roles. Pilot was the original plan, but I’m too old for this role. I absolutely love aircraft and travel - so I’m looking at other options where I can still spend a lot of time on or around aircraft.

At the moment, Loadmaster is my top choice - I like the idea of being on the aircraft, moving around, managing cargo, travelling, and actually being part of the flying, rather than sitting at a desk.

I’ve looked at all of the WSOp streams, but I’m a bit wary of being streamed into ISR if it ends up being mostly sitting in front of screens. I currently work in IT and just can't see myself working in IT ever again (even if its technically not the same, im defo more interested in a more physical job)

If anyone here is WSOp ISR , what’s the day-to-day actually like?
And realistically, how easy (or hard) is it to aim specifically for Loadmaster - is it a stream I can mention my preference for beforehand?

I know there are other routes which may suit me more too such as Avionics Engineer or Mover (For the travel aspect whilst still being physically hands-on) but of course these are different roles and I have to apply to a single one I believe?

Thanks
