I cannot convey how helpful this all is, thank you all.

From what i can conclude from what you have all kindly advised, both Maths and physics will be benefical, (as well as Spanish and Geography) and the idea of a sponsored training is out of the window anyway!

But my question is, is physics A-level of releveance, if flying ATPL training is on AIR LAW and none of the a-level syllabus' even touch on that.

Personally, i would like to do
Physics
Maths
Geography
Spanish

but am not sure about doing FURTHER MATHS instead of PHYSICS, because of increased use or relevance!

I know it sounds stupid, but i am strongly considering at least a year of cabin crew after my a-levels, to get an experience of flying, as well as my PPL in South Africa, as i family have property over there and it's a bit cheaper.

Based on this, is there any further advice?

I cannot express how valuable this all is, and i thank each and every one of you!
