The only reason they go there is because of SJSers like you who are afraid that you won't be cool because you weren't hired with 200 hours. Did you think it was because of the training you get there?
Please I hardly consider myself from having SJS. I didn't come to Riddle because I wanted to get hired for the least amount of training I came because I thougt it would allow me to be the most knowledgable with my desired profession. Now I know I can do that elsewhere for far less the cost. The idea of flying a jet at 200 hours is far from my perception and I would rather have more experience before taking to that kind of flying. I was only questioning about competition with Riddle not to know whether or not I would need more hours in order to "buy my interview" but in hopes of finding out whether or not their Aero Sci degree will put them ahead of me for a job at any point in time even if I had the same number of hours as them, 200 or 20,000. Some here claim that the Aero Sci degree is only good for wiping your a$$es and I just wanted to see what others thought.
