Hi

I'm currently looking around at ideas for an apprenticeship starting sometime in 2009. I'm currently looking around trying to get addresses, contact numbers e.t.c.

I'm halfway through a college VRQ in Engineering and would love an apprenticeship in aviation as it really interests me.

I already have an idea on which companies take apprentices but I'm unsure when and who to contact.

I would be really grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction on who to write too/contact, when too look e.t.c.

Many Regards
Michael

I did mine at what was Air UK at Norwich, it was very good. I believe it is now KLM UK still based at Norwich airport.

If you want to look good our latest name at the moment is Thomson Airways, not Thomsonfly anymore. But Nick will put you right if we are doing apprenticeships this year.

As an ex RAF apprentice I was going to suggest making
an application to the RAF, but i'm not sure if they still
have any trade training. I suppose they MUST have, might be worth exploring
RAF careers? Best of luck in the future. :ok:

Thanks for the help so far everyone, it's been brilliant, thanks. I have managed to contact a few of the addresses given above and they've told me to contact back around January but the conversation was good and did look promising.
