Hi Scott, being a mancunian taking A levels myself, i can relate to your situation in a way
. I am doing Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Psychology. I am what i would class as GCSE fluent in french
. I intend to work for a large commercial airline myself in the near future, and i definatly think that you should ignore the negative comments from people on here. Nothing is impossible, if you become fluent in french, and hold the minimum enterance criteria, you have a good chance!
As for the negative posters, i can guess that they:-
A) Don't hold any form of pilots license
B) Think they are the "oracle", but really know nothing.
C) are working for a really bad airline/charter company, and wish they had better jobs. like working for AF
D) They are intending on applying to AF, and don't want the competition
.
Go for it, Don't let anybody put you off
.
Danny
