Dear All,
I am a little stifled as to where to go next on my roller coaster ride to become an airline pilot. Having left college with good A-Levels in Maths Chemistry and Geography i applied to British Airways and Aer lingus for the sponsourship schemes, progressing through to the interviews and then being asked not to come back. ******!!
Deciding to go to University i am now in my final year and am on course to a high 2:1 in business. I have also currently just finished a ppl and am now, more determined than ever, to become an airline pilot.
Firstly i am quite a big chap play alot of rugby and am fit but wondering if my size will prevent me in any way of reaching my dream. I am 6"1 and 18 stone. Whats the general consensus there please.
Secondly is there any advice, should i apply now or should i finish the degree and then apply. Apart from BA and Aer Lingus does anybody now of complete sponsourship schemes to help a trainee on their way to surf the big wide blue, way up there, (the Sky), with the big boys?
All the help would be most grateful as i am a little stuck as to where to go next,
thanx,
