I went to Riddle in the 80's and now fly for AA. Military training is always the best as described by previous posts but in the case of AA an awful lot of guys that were civilian trained went to ERAU. More so than any other school. I think Perdue comes in a close second. Is ERAU worth the money? Probably not. It is, however, well known with recruiters and still enjoys a good reputation for good, standardized fight training within the various Flight Departments. So if you want to spend a fortune to get a job with little pay, no pension (in most cases), and no future then by all means, knock yourself out! For what it's worth..
