Let me get this straight. You're thinking of dropping out of an Aero Eng degree to pursue commercial flying training this year. If you do that, you'll end up with no degree and, most likely, no job.
Get your degree, have another look at the professional flying market after you graduate and if things have improved, consider training then. That way you might end up with both a degree and a job, instead of neither. You'd be nuts to sacrifice your education to try to get into aviation especially now of all times.
However, maybe you'd prefer me to say the aviation industry will suddenly become absolutely rosy on 31 Aug 2011 at 17:00 BST.
