TD - i totally agree about not putting all eggs in one basket. and i would suggest to anyone to get a degree outside aviation. and that can be done at most aviation schools
i did graduate with a business degree and im glad i did, cause when stuff hits the fan i'll be ready. but im also greatful to have studied aviation under some very good professors. there is no way i would have gotten my flight internship right out of school had i tried to do everything myself. and the training would have been way tougher. after school i was prepared to go out in the real world, and they are a big reason why
