Teamauk,
I think the first thing to do is to clarify exactly what sort of work your inspired to do?
Do you want to work in aircraft design/manufacturing or aircraft maintenance/maintenance management?
The two are completely different fields bound by a similar subject...aircraft.
Ghengis is good in his field which is engineering, including how to get degrees in aerospace subjects.
I, on the other hand, hold no qualifications other than some licences and some experience. But I'll have a stab at helping you on the maintenance side, if thats what you want?
