1. Flight training

2. You would need to build some time after/during college to have enough time for regionals. you would probably end up with 300ish hours after your flight courses

3. Bridgewater will give you credits for every rating you get..PPL through CMEL, CFI, II, MEI. However, their degree program with flight training concentration only goes to CFI.

4. As far as I know they do not have multi engine airplanes at their new flight school yet, although I'm sure they will at some point. Like I said in the last question, they will give you credits for any multi ratings you obtain, regardless of where you get it.

5. Don't think so. I wouldn't make this a deciding factor though. As much as some places like to make you think, you really don't NEED them to get a job at an airline. It doesn't hurt obviously, but spending and extra 10-15k on your training just for a "connection" at an airline isn't worth it.

6. I'm not sure what their new rates are. when I was there it was DCA, and they are expensive. I would probably assume it would be a little cheaper. If you call the aviation office they will give you an estimate right then and there.

Do you fly at Horizon?
