If you have any questions with regards to the engineering and the mechanics behind airplanes, feel free to drop a dm and I’ll be happy to share with you what we do here at Purdue University. I am also open to discussing about college life including Outdoor clubs, various engineering clubs and Greek life. My inbox is always open :)

Awesome good luck and congratulations!

RealDonJohnson · July 23, 2018, 3:58am

Hey y’all I will be starting my second year at ERAU this Fall and can’t wait,

I came to Riddle with my PPL and got my Instrument Rating by the end of my second semester, I will start my Commercial Single next semester, then Commercial Multi and after that I’ll have to chose to either become a CFI or focus on finishing my degree a year early and entering the aviation workforce.

If anyone here has any questions about Embry-Riddle I’d be happy to answer them, and if anyone here goes to Riddle let me know!

TheMoney6355 · July 23, 2018, 4:24am

Hi, I am interested to know if anyone here in the IFC has any Western U.S. Flight School experience. I know you can look on the web but that does no justice. Anyways, thanks for all the help!

These guys seem to have a lot of locations all over the US (including the west coast)

TheMoney6355 · July 23, 2018, 4:24am

Thanks, I will definitely check it out!

BobbyRobert · July 23, 2018, 4:24am

I am planning on attending Central Washington University when I get to that level, as I can get a degree in commercial aviation.

DeerCrusher · July 23, 2018, 4:24am

Highly recommend looking through the PDF below if you’re interested in getting a degree along side of flying. Reason I mention this is because a lot, and I mean about over 90% of them will want you to have a college degree of some sort.

These schools listed below have been accredited by the FAA and meet Restricted ATP minimums. Research more about what R-ATP minimums are if you’re interested.
