The guy that this thread was started about decided not to go for the masters. He got his Flight Dispatcher instead. Advancing through the CFI ratings as well!

I got involved in my masters back when I was not sure whether the piloting profession would ever pick back up, and I had a health issue. I was just doing what I thought would be beneficial at the time.

I think the Flight Dispatcher rating would have been a better idea.

Does anyone have anything to pass on concerning this? How about parks College?

Getting a Masters degree is a piece of cake! If you can afford it, go for it! However, if I were to do it over again, I would have gone for the MBA instead of an aviation management degree! The MBA has more depth and utility and you won't feel embarrassed talking about it in your aviation circles!
