I would avoid the fast track airline training academies if you can. Regardless of what many people will tell a DEGREE DOES COUNT. It really matters not what it is in however if you plan on making an airline your career goal you SHOULD get an aviation based degree. People who tell you an aviation degree is worthless probably dont have one or didnt get a very good one. A commercial aviation degree covers many aspects of the aviation envirornment, not just the actual flying of the aircraft side. Think of this in a different way. If you want to be a professional boxer would you go to a football training and box on the side? I would hope not. If you want to realize your full potential you should fully emerse yourself in the culture. I am a UND grad but I have instructed and trained at other facilities as well. I have a much more rounded experience than most and would be happy to discuss my experiences with you. You can email me if you would like
