Final year Aero at Loughborough.
I too chose this degree being mad about planes - not a good choice. Too hard, too much work, and often very boring. I have to admit when choosing modules later in the degree, and final year project etc. things can get more interesting. The negative side is, by that time the quantity of work is often so great you do not get a chance to sit back and enjoy what you're learning. What you do learn will not directly benefit you during pilot training (although it may help you with the tech writtens).
Having said that, its an extremely respected course because industry understands its tough, so job prospects are very good (not just within the engineering industry).
Given the chance would I choose it again?- Probably not!! Go to uni, do a degree that you know you will really enjoy. Dont miss out on university if you have the opportunity.
Good luck,
