Hope this helps and good luck.
Ironic you should mention that, his cousin is a Life Support Fitter and after listening to him is when he decided that the Air Force was his goal.

I must admit, i hadnt even thought of trying Edinburgh and its only 5 minutes from home.
Thanks for the advice, i will get him to make contact and see where it goes.
