Radio Control Aircraft Turbine

im joining the air force, whats better aircraft tech or avionics tech?
i got accepted to do pretty much any trade i want in the air force and im stuck on two different careers, aircraft technician where you rebuild turbines, landing gear, oxygen tanks, turbo-fans etc, or a avionics technician where you fix and diagnose all the electrics like radio transmitters and receivers electronic controls in the cockpit, batteries etc just all things electronic. im stuck and i need to make a decision asap
The problem with the Air Force is that they only teach you what they want you to know to accomplish a very narrow job description. If you sign up as a landing gear technician, all you will ever do is rebuild landing gears. If you are assigned as a turbine engine tech, all you will ever do is work on turbine engines. You could work at your assigned duties for 20 years and never actually touch an airplane.
An avionics tech gets a wider range of experience, and does actually get to work on airplanes. Plus… When you leave the service, an Avionics tech has a better chance of finding a good paying job in the aviation industry.
No matter which specialty you choose, do all you can right from the start to qualify for your A&P license. A fully qualified A&P/Avionics technician can almost write his own pay check on the outside!
