Hi thanks for your help, and sorry about the delay in replying as my internet connection has been to France and back! (or so to speak). About the military career, in the past i have thought about it but never really liked the idea of being strapped to a rocket pulling 9G's at 36000ft, i think i would prefer a life of luxary (or how ever you spell it???) in a flight deck of an airliner! i will follow up all your leeds with alot of anticipation but i think i will have to concentrate on my studies at the moment.....
thank you very much and wish me luck!
