A career as an airline pilot remains prestigious and desirable, with unrivaled travel opportunities and the best office view anybody could wish for. Contrary to popular belief, you do not actually need a maths degree to become an airline pilot, in fact, many people go straight from school into an airline training school. However, you will find some knowledge of maths and physics useful when embarking on the tough ground school elements of airline pilot training, as you will need to learn about the forces that keep an aeroplane in the air, calculate flight times and fuel consumption and so on. To become an airline pilot, you will have to complete fourteen rigorous exams, hundreds of hours of flight training and courses that will teach you how to work with an airline crew.
