As others have already commented having a degree is useful as a basis for a plan B career should there be one of those cyclical downturns in the pilot market. At the moment the market is predicted to go up and up which gives you the 4 years it will take to complete your degree followed by your fatpl.

At the end of this time investing in your career you will be of an optimal age to approach employers with impressive qualifications and get off to a great start.

The biggest challenge most face is money which is not an issue for you so take it all in your stride would be my advice.

Good luck whatever you decide to do!
