Is it just me or do the majority of complaints about the degree requirement seem to come from those that don't have them. While we are at it why don't we just complain about the FAA making you go through a joke of what is commercial pilot training to get paid to fly.

It would seem to me that it's their company and they can require anything they like in order for you to join it as long as it's a legal requirement. I have met many that just simply choose not to go get credit assigned for their ratings and experience and then start on a relatively simple process to get their 4 year degree on line. Several schools will assign credit for ratings. But these same individuals will throw money into plenty of other past times then complain that it shouldn't be a requirement.

What next? Go to a medical school and tell them that you don't need an undergrad degree to apply for admission? Utterly confused?
