If you are trying to become an airline pilot the Msc is not esssential ,but would be handy if you were considering management later on.. .The City of London do ATPL TECH PERF courses.. .You may even consider home study for the ATPL while doing your Msc.. .There are several companies that specialise with this.. .Also Oxford and Prestwick are available for the techs plus Flying if required.. .Good Luck
