Maintenance apprenticeships

[Aerofoil]

Hi guys

I have a friend who is currently at college but is contemplating leaving to start an apprenticeship.

I asked him if he has looked into aircraft maintenance technician apprenticeships.
Now i am training towards becoming a pilot and can only give him limited info so i was wondering if someone could give me some advice as to how he can find out more about what the job entails and also how to get onto some sort of apprenticeship/training course?

Any addresses, web sites contact number etc would be excellent.
Thanks in advance

Rare, but still available (certainly aircraft engineering, if not necessarily maintenance), I think, at...

- Some BAe sites (you usually need to apply individually)
- Westland Helicopters (Yeovil)
- Qinetiq Boscombe Down

Should be details on the respective websites.

Mr @ spotty

Thanks for that, i was about to say that i used to work as cabin crew for Britannia and i was going to ask about an apprenticeship with them as im aware they run apprenticeships on occasion.

Where can i find this advert with Britannia?

Thanks v much
