I was one of the old school to come out with all five ratings, have worked both area and aero and loved both!
Been aerodrome for the last 13 years because I value the life style and area I live in, but I'm still loving it!
But I would go with the others, keep ya options open! When we graduated we were given the choice of eight postings - which really turned out to be in them days; LATCC, LATCC, LATCC........
So Good luck
