Question

Hello everyone,

First post so I'll try to be good
I am sorry for the mistakes I could make, I'm still learning English.

I am in this situation as I am finishing High School.
I have been told by a number of involved people that there is going to be a flourish in aviation business by 2006.

I make a bet : if I begin my training now, maybe I could get my licenses just on time to "catch the train". Obtaining a degree would force me to wait till next cycle, for only a few advantages. After ten years working as a pilot, what would my degree be worth ?
But risky it is.

On the other hand, a degree is not expensive in my country. I would "lose" a couple of years in aviation, but the benefit of it in case of medical problems would be great (-so do I hope, but no certainty)

I don't know what's the best answer.
