You can do something like an MBA that could also apply to aviation.
That might be one reason. I barely got through school until I switched to a major that I was actually interested in. There are lots of aviation related businesses - so I wouldn't consider it putting all of your eggs in one basket. If I don't end up flying after I leave the military I've thought about using my safety experience to get a master's and maybe look into NTSB. If I didn't have such a disdain for lawyers I might even consider Aviation Law Sorry for the swipe at you Vagabond!
