Hi, Thanks for the link, I will sit and digest that tonight!. So I take it I can study the modules that can be done without having to touch an A/C?. The only thing really stopping me jumping in with 2 feet is the fact I could fund myself to study an area (Aircraft Mechanical Engineering) only to find when I leave aged 30 no one will touch me with a barge pole due to my age and maybe being over qualified, I would Imagine they would rather have a fresh young nipper over myself!, therefore I could be wasting a lot of time and money, although I know that that is a risk a lot of forces people have to take.
Do you think the fact that I am older and wiser, as well as having extensive knowlege of using tools and the operating procedures the come with aviation (tool control, Tmec etc etc) would render me employable in this Industry?
