How to get started in aircraft engineering.
My 15 year old son has just begun his last year at school, and he has ambitions to become an aircraft engineer. In my day, you applied for an apprenticship, but how does it work now? would he be best to go on to A levels and University?
He already has a great deal of aircraft engineering and general airfield work expirience as he is a keen member of the aircraft collection at Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire, England, and part owns a taxiable Jet Provost.
His real interest is in General Aviation and Vintage aircraft restoration.
It is time for him to start planing ahead, and we thought the profesionals were the best place to start.
