I don't know what service to apply from yet. I want to go into Air Engineering so I was thinking navy or air force.

Sadly the Air-Engineer job doesn't exist any more :frown:

But if you mean being an Aircraft Technician or an Engineering Officer then that's dandy ^_^

Oh, I went to the open day yesterday and the guy from the Navy said that it was one of the roles as an engineering officer.

Ah, confusion :smile:

An AIr Engineer in the RAF is a chap who looks after the aircraft systems in-flight as a member of the Crew. In the Navy an Air Engineering Officer / Technician is someone who works on the Aircraft on a ship. Guessing you meant the latter as opposed to the former!
