How are the working hours at Royal Air Force?

Varies from job to job. Working in an office tends to be 0800-1700 (depending on workload)
The RAF is definitely for those who gained half decent qualifications at school, want to serve their country, but don't want the hassle of proper military life (AKA Army). This isn't a criticism, it's from personal experience from being in the Army and now working alongside the RAF as a civilian contractor.
Some times long and random, but there are other benefits to outweigh that.
Work hard play hard
Dependant on shift patterns and operational necessaity it may be long hours.
