If you want to become an airline plot, go to this forum created for aspiring pilots- http://www.pprune.org\n\nIt is predominantly British/European so you will find lots of pertinent info there.

I thought you need to complete A level (in British system), then go for an undergraduate degree?

Captain is O3 in the AF.  the requirements to advance to that paygrade are the same for pilots as they are for any other Officer.. time in rank as an O1 and O2 first, demonstrate sufficient knowledge of your community, and not screw up too badly in the meantime.  \n\nIn addition the regular requiurements that all Officers must meet( Citizenship, 4 year degree), there are additional requirements for Aviation, including a much more stringent physicial( perfect vision, among others)\n\nThey TYPE of degree you have is also very important.  hard science degrees and Engineering degrees are more in demand than Political Science or Criminal Justice.  and yoru GPA better be at LEAST 3.5, or you won't be remotely competetive.  The AF is over manned, and is very picky about who they accept each year.

Hi,\n\nI've just checked on the Oxford website and it says that you need "chemistry with either maths or biology or physics" and that is at full A-level.  I think that the minimum number of full A-levels you can offer is 3, because the typical offer will be something along the lines of AAA or if you are very lucky AAB.\n\nAs for Cambridge, they "strongly prefer" candidates to have taken the full chemistry A-level, and it varies between college as to how many other science/maths A-levels you have (although I think that the majority like you to have at least 2 science/maths A-levels and another A level in a different subject).  Cambridge will also have a typical AAA offer if you are studying 3 science/maths A-levels, and if you are studying 2 maths/science A-levels then you will need As in both of those subjects, an A in the additional subject and an A in a science/math subject at AS.\n\nHope that is helpful, and good luck!

good hand eye coordination, the ability to adapt and manage in stressful situations, no height requirements, have to pass all tests in flight school of course.\nGood luck!

I'd have thought that your best bet would be to take a course through the Open University, their website is here... http://www.open.ac.uk/ \n\nThere's lots of courses available and you can choose the components you want to take from a list of possible options.  To get your degree you normally need to have a total of 360 points and each component module scores 30 or 60 points.\n\nIt's generally recommended that you do no more than 120 points worth of components in any one year and on this basis you'd be looking at 3 years in total.

1) HOW DO I BECOME A COMMERCIAL PILOT?\n\n CIVILIAN ROUTE\n1. Get your pilot certificates and ratings via a flying club or school at the local airport, a university aviation program. A newly certificated commercial pilot with instrument and multi-engine ratings usually has about 250 hours. This is not enough for the airlines*. (See note* at bottom)\n\n2. Build up flight experience until about 1,000 flight hours. Most regional airlines require pilots to have at least 1,000 hours of flight time, with 100 of that being in multi-engine aircraft and a Commercial/Multi/Instrument certificate. (An Airline Transport Pilot certificate is not required until you make captain.) Common time building jobs are: banner towing, skydive pilot, pipeline patrol, traffic watch or flight instruction (with the additional Certified Flight Instructor rating)\n\n3. Get a degree. You do not need a degree in aviation, but having a degree in any subject is a requirement to getting hired on at a major airline. The regionals aren't so picky. Many think they must have an aviation degree to have an edge but when or if you are ever furloughed during your career an aviation degree is useless.\n\n4. Upon reaching the magic 1,000 hours begin applying! Hopefully you will get hired. Learn to live on a budget as regional airline pay is not very good. After building up about 2,000-3,000 hours and "paying your dues" at a regional you then qualify for a job with a major carrier.\n\n5. Begin applying all over again at the majors.....\n\n* There are some airline academy programs (Delta Connection Academy, Mesa Ailines Pilot Development, Flight Safety among others) that offer a "quick entry" scheme into the right seat of a regional airline. They are very costly and do not guarantee a job, but an interview only. If you pass their program and the airline interview, you could very well be hired as a First Officer at 300-400 hours. Some are very pro this method while others in the industry are not as they feel it's "buying a job". Some academy grads will face discrimination during their career because of this.\n\nMILITARY ROUTE\nJoin the military and hope to get selected as a pilot candidate for one of the highly competitive openings. Manage to pass flight school (failure rate is about 25%). Become a military aviator. Don't get killed while serving your country. Get out after 12 years and apply to the airlines.\n\nVisit these informative sites for more info:\nhttp://www.jetcareers.com\nhttp://www.flightinfo.com\n\n2) HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?\nIt takes as little as 18 months but more often 2-3 years to get hired by a regional airline as a First Officer (the starting point in the industry for airline pilots) .\n\nThe usual route to the airlines is flight training for the Private license, Instrument rating, Commercial license and multi-engine rating in about 12-18 months. Quite often a person will also get their Flight Instructor certificate and teach as a way to build flight time. The regional airlines hire people with 1,000 hours of flight time. (You don't need 1,500 hours and the Airline Transport Pilot certificate to get hired, although it makes you a better candidate.) Once a new commercial pilot with 250 hours has instructed or built up time via other small jobs, which takes another 12-18 months, they can apply at 1,000 hours and be hired by a regional airline. For about 85-90% of the industry, this is the usual route. It costs about $40,000-50,000. (Sometimes considerably more depending on where you go.)\n\nThere are also some "academy" style programs that will train you for the PPL, Instrument, Commercial, & ME in 12-18 months, plus some airline style ground school, then offer a pilot an interview with an affiliated regional at substantially reduced flight times. This method of training often costs $60,0000-$80,000 and doesn't guarantee a job- only an interview. If the candidate passes it successfully, they will g

If you are planning on studying for a degree in Architechture (or related subject) then you could easily check the admission requirements to these courses. Many courses have a prefered combination of A-Level subjects.\nYou should also consider course content to see if Chemistry is a large part of the work - different Universities will have different course content.\nTo begin this research have a look at the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) site:

Many colleges have an aviation department. Major airline companies and such recruit from them.\n\nIf you want to fly fighter jets however - you need the military. \n\nIf you wish to just fly for pleasure - many community airports have instructors available.

Depending on the course you want to read.  Most, if not all, courses require A-level grades.\n  That is unless you're incredibly clever in which case I'd talk to my teachers as they'd know how to go about it.

If you don't want to study, then you do not want to be a pilot. There is an enromous amount of study involved in becoming a pilot and continually there after. Airline captains are also required to go back to school twice a year and take proficiency exams and simulator evaluations. If they fail, they can lose their job.

do you want to be a pilot, or just want to be in the RAF?\n\ngetting a pilot slot is a lot harder then they might make it appear..jsut to get you to sign up.  get somehting in writing first telling you you'll get a pilot slot for training.\n\nim a pilot and there is NO better job in the world.

You don't join the military and just become a pilot.  If you have yet to graduate from high school or have done really well with it you can get into the ROTC program and go to school then be commisioned as an officer.  You could also enlist and then go to school while serving in another career--after you get your degree you can apply to officers training school.  (OTS)  There are several ways in which to get scholarships to become an officer either through enlistment or ROTC.  Your best bet is contacting a recruiter.

Take the AS level not the A Level it is a step above GCSE (O-level) and a step below A-Level. It is also cheaper than A-level and takes a shorter time to finish 1 year rather than 2 years. It is accepted by lots of universities and colleges as a requirement rather than A-level which is a little too advanced and could help you reduce some credits in some universities.\n\nTrust me I went through this I know.

A-Levels (Advanced Level) are the hardest exams taken by 17/18 year old pupils. They are academic exams aimed at the top 15-20% of pupils.\nThere will be at least one school (11 - 18 year olds) nearby which teaches a range of A-Level subjects and usually at least one college (for those 16 and over - including adults of all ages).\nMost of these courses last 2 years and it is uncommon for anybody to study them for 4 years or more.\nA-Level qualifications are the usual entry requirements onto degree courses at universities. Many universities require high grades A, B or C. Grades D and E limit your chance of entry.\nThose hoping to go to university usually study 3 A-Levels. A typical requirement for entry onto a Science course is 3 A-Levels at grade C (or higher) in subjects such as Physics, Biology, Mathematics or Chemistry.\n\nSome A-Level subjects which do not have a practical component to the course are available as 'Distance Learning' courses via the internet or correspondence; see the link below. My search term was "distance learning"+A-Level. You will probable have to add +UK to the end of the term.\nE-mail me if you want further help.
