Despite my dream to be a car mechanic, the courses I applied for were full. Soooooo I decided to go with Aircraft Mechanics. I got accepted into an aircraft maintenance program whilst in Cadets, but because of moving and my chronic condition, I turned it down.
This should be fun, but it means for the next 2 years after this one, I won't be around here much.
Life has a funny way about it, I get rejected from the air force, only to go and work on planes (knock on wood) anyway.
I hope I get accepted into this course, I would hate to have to be a burden to my parents any longer

Some colleges do offer Aircraft Maintenance programs. Our local community college does and classes are held at the former Griffiss AF Base in nearby Rome, NY.

Best wishes - and keep following your passions.

March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
