All i would say about the Aero Engineering degree is that it is bloody hard!! I decided that it would look good to airlines to have the course on my CV, but to be honest I think it was a bad choice. I am still training for ATPL so don't actually know if it will make a difference yet, but i struggled all the way through the 3 years and only just managed to pass the degree at the end. Although is has helped my with some of the ATPL subjects, I think it would have been a better choice to have done a subject that i really enjoyed and was good at instead. Cos in the end of the day if i was employing some one I would prefer some one who got a really good grade in a unrelated subject, than someone who just managed to scrape through doing a related subject. Maybe Airlines don't think that way... who knows... there's my 3p worth any way...
