Yep I was thinking of applying but then not. I never finished my leaving cert. I did go on to do a HND in telecommunications and other 3rd level stuff but it's not a degree no matter which way you paint it. Also by the sounds of things, having any flying qualifications, even FAA tickets is a possible no-no. Age would likely go against me too and I'm not prepared to lie about any of the above. Good luck to anyone who applies - This is one of the best things to happen in years.
