Hi FHA,

Nope I dont have a degree, But I have qualifications to a level where the next stage would be onto a degree.

I left school at 16 and went straight into the Printing Industry. I apprentice trained as a mechanical engineer and have been doing that ever since. My work involves Maintenance and repair of large scale Printing presses ( the stuff your Broadsheets are printed on) Stripping Gearboxes, Machining parts, working to tight tolerances etc. Fault finding. I have a sound base knowledge of engineering principles aswell.

Obviously I know I wouldnt be able to step straight into a job and would be willing to start back at the bottom of the ladder. Im only 23 so I dont mind doing that. At the minute I work shifts so fitting something around that would also be an option but I dont know if its possible.

Commercial Pilot is a dream but working on Aircraft is also a dream aswell!
