At the moment, unless you want to wait 12 months then you're going to be Area.
Last Aero course was due to start in October 09, got cancelled and everyone shoved to the Jan 10 course, which has been cancelled and everyone shoved on the April 10 Course, which has been cancelled. So some have transferred onto the Feb Area course and some transferred onto the next available Aero course- and no one knows when that is going to be!
