Ok...with that I can agree. If the only thing anyone learned through college and most of their life was how to fly an airplane...then they are f*cked. I definately do not consider myself in that group of individuals. The only thing I was trying to get at is that you can have a degree in aviation and not have it be just about how to fly an airplane and you can work in aviation and actually make a meaningful and livable wage.
