But don't BEngOs still get some time to get their hands oily during work experience time away from their academic courses?
JEngOs used to do all the academics first, then hit the squadrons knowing all the theory but none of the practice - I thought their course was then changed into a sandwich course, with the jam in the middle being practical hands-on time?
SEngOs leading? Well, a couple I knew of 2 who certainly united the squadron oilies..... Perhaps not in the way they would have liked. One was an autocratic fool with the man management skills of Attilla the Hun, the other a bumbling idiot who hid behind a wall of paperwork.

engo's/sengo's having a clue how to weild a spanner??? 
, tell me another one, please my sides are hurting, why do you think lyneham is such a mess at the moment? People who have a commision who THINK they know best/what they are doing, implementing policy they have no idea about 
to be honest, a big step forward would be a job swap week, where tekkies could shadow the aircrew all day, from plans to brief to flying to de-brief, and aircrew follow the tekkies round all day, fixing the fooked frames 
, would give a good appreciation of just how much is involved in each job, and might just increase morale and squadron ethos a bit 
. To be fair, the SF crews are spot on, always interested and appreciative of the engineers work
