hi all, im new here, im studying Avionics in Ireland however i am informed i must do 2/3 years placement before i can get my technicians licence,

I'm guessing your doing the course in Carlow. I completed a year of the course myself and left to take up an apprenticeship, I have to say if you want to get your B2 I'm afraid Carlow isn't the way to go about it. Of the 3 or 4 groups that have completed the course I don't think anyone has been given any jobs in maintenance with the 2 years taking into account. All the companys, in Ireland anyway, have their apprenticeship route.

I have to agree with the other comments your probably as well bite the bullet and go straight for the flying. I see now with PTC in Waterford they've arranged some sort of finance arrangement with the aib.
