I’m heavily in love with planes, the raw power they possess and the elegance of their flight. But I have been looking at some of the jobs for an Aero Engineer and most of those jobs have been "avionics, thermal dynamics, fluid dynamics,…etc." And all these type of jobs for an AE do not seem to hit the spot of the plane that I am interested in. Should I stick with AE or perhaps be an ME and work on the mechanical components of the plane? (I’m not really sure about which engineers work on which components though) Thanks!
Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics are integral part of aerospace engineering, combined they shape up the plane. And mechanical engineers can work in the airframe and structural mechanics.
