I can understand what you are all saying, but what I am researching is becoming a maths or physics teacher. I can learn the syllabus for both (there are special 6 month courses). I have been an instructor for many years as well as charter pilot. I know I can communicate well and would be a reallly good teacher. What I want to persuade the University to do is to allow me on a post graduate teaching course. As the ATPL is not recognised as a full degree, perhaps my flying experience and instructing might make up for the rest. I believe that it is discretionary on the part of the education provider where it comes to mature students.
Has anyone else tried this? Do you think I am peeing whilst standing with an area of low pressure on my right?
Cheers
