Qualifications... help!

Hello folks, would appreciate some help/advice here regarding qualifications and engineering jobs.

Here's the scenario, been working at an electronics factory for 4 years, now time served, have 2 HNCs in both Engineering and Electronic Engineering, have been working in test/fault-finding/repair on Radar and various other avionics, much experience with PCB work, power supplies, test equipment etc. What sort of jobs (if any) would I be eligible for? Was thinking along the lines of airport support/maintenance or indeed basic aircraft maintenance if possible.

Are the HNCs much cop for this or would I be looking at going to University for a while/getting licensed?

Any advice would be appreciated... just "testing the water" so to speak, getting a bit cheesed off with my current job so am just putting out feelers just now. Perhaps not the best time to go changing jobs just now what with the current economic climate but just doing some investigation first!

Cheers

Smithy
