Aircraft Engineer via distance learning

Hi all,

I have looked online for information on becoming a licensed engineer (B1).

As far as my background goes, I am 29 years old, have an Aerospace Engineering MSc and currently work full time within GA/BA/Helicopter environment (supply chain) for a major manufacturer. I have also worked within a commercial environment and also within operations at a London airport. I also have a PPL.

I am looking at a career change to aircraft engineering preferably turbine work. I am aware that my degree does not help as it is the theoretical side of things. I will require some hands on work experience in combination with exams.

What I am looking for is some advice from anybody who has potentially gone down a similar route whilst working full time or anybody with some pointers on how I can progress steadily towards gaining the licence.

What are my potential distance learning options?

Thanks all
A
