I don't mean to steal your post, but I was just about to post a similar question. I have read a few posts regarding people working on their MBA's while being pilots. As I am nearing the end of my Bachelor's degree, I am also considering to get an MBA. Since my major is in liberal arts, I would very much like to focus on something like Engineering... Ok, so in a nutshell, why would you get an MBA if you already have a bachelor's? Other than having something solid to fall back on (if things go south) would airlines (like a major, fractional, Fedex/UPS) prefer a person with an MBA? (regardless of flying skills/experience). Also, maybe I can answer your question. I know there are many colleges who offer MBA's via online. Especially for a pilot, I don't see how you can attend 1 or 2 classroom classes on a regular basis (unless you fly cargo only at night)....
