Aeronautical jobs are not suitable for india jibs are very less and we have to depend on outsourced projects. Think twice before you join aeronautical. If you are highly determined then go for it. Other side of the shore will always have green pastures but reality will differ. Kindly accept this advice because I’m also a aeronautical engg
