According to Aerospace, the Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, there will be many thousands of new Pilots, and maintenance engineers required in the next few years, there many new aircraft on order from Boeing and Airbus. Someone is going to have to fix them.
Perhaps I was lucky, 15 years in the RAF, and then 29 years with possibly the worlds largest Helicopter company, including a stint in Africa.

I am sure that you have to be prepared to relocate, I believe my old company (Bristow) is training engineers in Aberdeen, but you would have to be prepared to do some time on the North Sea.
