Pitts, I'm guessing most of the scholarship applicants were hangar rats of some description - it's just what you do when you're trying to get involved in the industry. You take whatever you can - I certainly did. He's not on their meet the team page, so if what you are saying is true he's probably cleaning helicopters or doing ground crew or something. Anyway very best of luck to him. It's good to see something positive in the industry.
