I know you are just asking a question, but this has been answered and discussed ad nauseam...not technically required--but

Less than 10% of the application pool has been called for an interview over the last few years and maybe 1% (probably less) of those people have not had at least a 4 year degree. Your chances of your app getting through the computer system are exponentially low without a degree.

A guy involved in the hiring process told me they have decided (for now) that they'd rather have a guy with less experience but 4 year degree when the pilot pool starts to dry up in the next 5 or so years.

You'll be much less frustrated just finishing your degree.
