Any help greatly appreciated
its possible but it’s a harder and longer route to get in to. You might have to start small on turbo props and work your way up. I recommend doing A-levels as it will stand out a lot more to airlines. Don’t be too worried if you don’t do well at A-levels though. I know pilots who fly for major airlines with bad GCSEs. It’s just a harder and longer route. So I’d say. Go on to do A-levels and try your hardest but don’t worry too much if you don’t do well, it’s still possible. Good luck!
