hi, i have been interested in air craft/aviation histor for as long as i can remember and its been a life long ambition to get involved with some aircraft restoration.
i have approched several companies over the last couple of years with the hope of getting involved but have had no luck.
i am a trained welder fabricator (and was previously coded to ASME9) which you would think would help but obviously i would need to be qualified to work on anything that is going to fly.
im now at a point where im considering joining the army as an aircraft technician which will give me the training and qualifications i need when i leave but is quite a comitment.
does anyone have any advice for me on how to get into aircraft restoration/working on planes without joining the army?
any advice would be greatly apreciated.
cheers,
josh.
