You have several potential options.

I would look into getting your degree one way or another. First and foremost, try and get it now if at all possible. If that doesn't work, take the job & see if there is some way that you can get your credit while working at least part time. I don't know how your school is setup, but generally speaking, you can probably get by with only attending 1 day a week for a class like statistics. You already have your notes (and assignments) from this year. You've been to (at least some of) the lectures. All you really need to show up for is handing in assignments (if that can't be done electronically) and quizes/exams.

If something is preventing you from doing that job and going to school at the same time, I'd say take the job anyways & do it until September rolls around. And again, either get a McJob to occupy your extra time or take a few extra courses to either round out your education a bit, or pad your GPA.

If the thing that prevents you from taking the piloting job while going to school is location, consider getting your credits transferred to a local school. Though this sometimes ends up with a handful of courses needing to be taken to meet the new schools degree requirements so you might not be any better off doing that. Still, something to think about.

Last option is not getting your degree. You've gotten this far already, and it will be a lot easier to get it now (or next year) than it will in a decade or two.
