a good start would be to get your private pilots licence, rack up lots of flying hours then go for your commercial licence, once you have that, you've cracked it, good luck

I'm in the US air force and I'll tell you, you won't be a pilot unless you become and officer, which means college. Most places want you to have college to become a professional pilot. I have 2 uncles that are both pilots and graduated at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Florida. They said it was a really nice school. If you did decide to become an officer and become a pilot you should make it perfectly clear that's your intention. You must also be in peak physical shape and have near 20/20 vision. It helps to take lessons on your own before hand.

visit the easyjet website, click on careers, and there is some good advice on what you need to become a commercial pilot. be aware it's pricey, but they have a scheme where if you qualify, they put up the funds, and you pay them back (it 'll probably take all your working life though!)

Air Force, without a doubt!
No "special school", can train you to the specifications demanded by the military.
