Hi guys!
This is my first post on PPRUNE so i'll just cut to the chase
Im 14 years old and currently taking my GCSE's. My one real ambition is to become a commercial airline pilot. I know that the majority of airlines mininmum requirements are 5 GCSE's- preferably english, maths and a science subject & 2 'A' levels- once again, preferably maths and physics.
At my school im doing GNVQ intermediate science not the usual double award. I was just wondering if the airlines would accept such a qualification in place of a GCSE. :
Thanks
Lewis

Well...to be absolutely honest.
Once you get your A-levels, not many people really care about GCSE/ GNVQs as long as you get your A-levels!!
I would definately advise buying the book 'A guide to getting a Commercial pilot licence' by Clive Hughes.
Any more help feel free to post!
Best of luck,
