DNwiskey,
While I applaud the fact you probably got into NK because you went to riddle and had a 3.0 or greater GPA ( just an assumption, please prove me wrong ) I can say, with great certainty, that the training for the CRJ course at Riddle was harder than the training at any regional, and that will include multiple regionals flying other airframes. The instructors there treated us like we were in an airline training course from day 1, and it was great to see because it washed out people who did not take it seriously right from the get-go. It is a heavily priced course, but it is the culmination of your curiculum at ERAU, if you did everything there, and should be treated as such. Match any Thesis Class to the CRJ course and you will see the same price, albeit those SOB's are making 10X more than we ever will and destroying communitities in the process, but who said anyone ever got into business to be ethical in the first place ?
