Extra 2 A-levels or straight into modular flight training?
Hello I’m planning to become a commercial pilot via the modular route but I am coming back from a long illness (still eligble for a Class 1 medical CAA+EASA). And I have been thinking of what to do after completing my first A-level my physio recomended that I start with one A-level in one year(geography). During that year I am going to work so that with even 1 year of part time work I can afford my ATPL theory with BGS and hour building in the US. Also id like to start my PPL it costs a lot where i live (~13.5 k) so I was thinking of going to Spain and get a CAA/EASA PPL for a lot less any info or advice for that would also be great.
I’m debating whether to:
A) Do 2 A-levels in the second year, then start ATPL theory.
or
B) Stick with just 1 A-level and begin ATPL theory.
I’m not aiming for university my long-term goal is to be a pilot. I’m hoping to be dual-licensed and I am a uk/eu citizen and willing to move anywhere to improve my chances of getting hired. Would skipping the extra A-levels limit my future career options (e.g. SFI roles, management)?
Thanks in advance — any advice or shared experience would really help.
