the main reason for me doing the course, was for a 'back up' option if something where to go wrong with me in the future i.e. medical not renewed due health reasons etc. you can master in other aviation areas once uve completed the 3yr degree
If that is the case, you would have been a lot better off doing a degree in another discipline. Then if you did lose your license for whatever reason, you could walk straight into a relatively high paid job.
