Ok Basically my Dream is to be a Pilot for BA or for another Airline and I would like to know my chances of achieving this....I personally think its very small but there may always be a chance

I am 18, I just did my GCSE's got 10 A*-C grades...I am doing do my A levels now and I am expected to get :- Geography (B), Biology (B) hopefully and a Pass in a course called Oracle academy

I have applied to University Next year to study Geography with Enviromental Studies

I have had around 5 hours flying Experience so far :O. If I wanted to become an airline pilot I know It would be a long haul struggle

What should I do to get along that pathway..Should I get my PPL while at University etc...Money won't be too much of a problem if I get a Part job. What should I do after Uni etc etc..Do I have to take Physics and Maths A level to have a chance

Thanks in advance guys:)

Uni is good if you want a backup.. although if it were me (as it will be in the coming year..) I will be going straight into training after A-Levels!

I don't think my heart would be in uni..

Good luck... and PM me if you want to chat on msn =)
