thanx 4 the replies!
my uni course offers the chance of industrial placement between yr 2 and 3 so would mean me finishing my degree a year later.
im actually already in the UAS and have always wanted to be a military pilot, so started EFT, but unfortunately dont have the natural aptitude and as much time to commit (due to a demanding course at uni) to EFT as i would have liked, so had to withdraw from a pilot trade in UAS 3 weeks ago. i am however, still in the UAS as ground trade so will get all the experience in those areas to find out if its for me!
so obviously from this you can see that military flight ops is my preference - civilian is the backup incase i dont get accepted which is why im really not sure about a placement!!
arrrrrrrrr its all so confusing!!
