Military Pilot Pathway The Military Pilot Pathway is an exciting career pathway for experienced pilots from the Royal Air Force, Royal Navy, Royal Marines and Army Air Corps. Joining British Airways after serving your country is a great way to continue flying to exacting standards - in a uniform you'll be proud to wear. A career without limits As the nation's flag carrier, we take great pride in connecting Britain with the world and the world with Britain.
