Not true. There are two pilots I know who flowed that did not have degrees. 1 is still at Delta and a very good pilot as he was my sim partner at Compass. I say it without reservation that he is very good at his profession. The second was the notorious individual who was given many chances to be successful but never seized the opportunity.
