Thanks for the information. I should be o.k with the team working ability as have captained football and cricket teams, after 25 hours of the PPL I am very confident at handling the aircraft and have done 3 hours solo and am well into navigation. I wont let people at school pressure me into uni, at the end of the day, as I explained to them I will do whats best for the flying, I don't want to be an academic with a degree in a top subject from a top uni if It doesn't help in any way shape or form to becoming a pilot!! I also need to think about the money.
