I don't have any technical experience, there aren't many places you can obtain any kind of qualifications without actually being either an apprentice or a university student. I do have work experience in both the airline industry (3 years) and from a private rotary company (sporadically over 5 years).

Second, I thought it might be easier to work in Canada as it is also a Commonwealth country.

I really want to be a pilot engineer. I have a passion for helicopters and so want to know everything about them inside and out. I'm fairly ambitious so I don't mind doing more or traveling far to get what I want. The opportunities in Australia are less than dire and I know Canada is the place to be for helicopters.

Are my goals too far fetched? What are some pointers to getting the attention of prospective employers?
