I'm just finishing up an internship with AA. I worked within American Eagle Flight Training. A lot of work was just doing odds and ends that happen in every office (copies, emails, organizing). However, my primary job has been filling out 8710 forms and temporary airman certificates for everybody passing through. The best part of the internship is the benefits you get. I've spent several hours in the CRJ-700 and Boeing 737 sim. I went on about 25 free flights on the weekends and I get four more roundtrips this fall. I also made some incredibly valuable contacts within American Eagle. I know for sure I'd get an interview once I meet the requirements. If you have any questions...just let me know.

Go with the first one that hires you. Don't forget to get that flight time though. :rolleyes:

scrapdog, what is involved in flying for the ANG after I graduate college
|
Guard OCS.....then UPT... then transition training...THEN back to your unit... probably 18-24 months essentially on active duty to get through everything and qualified.

how would I get started with the application process for that? should i contact a recruiter?

Lots of internships (non-regional) will help you get a job down the road.
If you want an honest-to-God great experience that will help your career and have you doing things well above of making copies and coffee, I'd highly suggest the UPS Co-op in Louisville. It will take you a year, but you will not regret it...TRUST ME! |

What' the point here? The point is, is that a young kid is asking how to start down an aviation road in his life. Instead of interning at an airline - try something that is not available in any civilian facet - flying jets for the military. Airlines and flying for freight will be around for the forseeable future. He can do that as a side job while doing the ANG/Res or he can do that after he gets does a very rewarding career as a 20 year officer/aviator with a very nice pention on the side. The ability to be a millitary aviator won't be available to him for the forseeable future - and the window of opportunity is narrow, both in age and physical condition. |
