Are the RAF and Civilians going to reclassify the job of 'Flight Engineer' for those 'Flight Technicians' who do not have degrees? I see that there are Universities producing folks with degrees in Aircraft Maintenance. Are they Engineers because they have a degree? Strange thing is that they can't certify diddly until they have a Part 66 Aircraft Maintenance Technician Licence. It is a funny old world isn't it.
Back to my original question, where do Engineer Officers go to when they leave the RAF?
By the way I am far too long in the tooth to enter into anything other than a deabte on this subject. I have never been in the Forces, but have heard that there are some very good Engineer Officers and the there are the others. Bit like the civilian side I suppose.
