I want to be an Airline Pilot! please help!

And if i wont get the same training please tell me what will be different?

Answer 1

Yes, ERAU does allow you to earn your different pilots certificates. However, it is not part of the Aeronautical Science degree. The flight training is separate from the degree. While they are made to be done concurrently, the flight training is not "included" with the degree.

Below are the prices for getting your certificates on top of the regular tuition and fees for getting the Aeronautical Science degree.

So yes, the training you will receive will be the same that you will receive at any other flight school.

Answer 2

First off i admire your drive, second is there a special reason you want to go to embry riddell are you going to try and get an A&P license? if not then i would just go to college and bang out a EASY degree like underwater basket weaving type of degree because you just need a degree to got to officer training school doesn't matter what it is so if its something easy you can just bang it out in like 3 years and then you can go too OTS and air force pilots make pretty good money themselves not as much as a Commercial pilot but if you can knock out your 20 years and retire as a O-5 or so you will be 42 years old and getting a paycheck from uncle sam for the rest of you life and still be a commercial pilot. the other thing is just cause you fly cargo in the military doesn't qualify you to fly a commercial plane you have to go through the FAA testing same as everyone else the only difference is you wont have to really study the flying part of it too much like most others. so it would be a pretty easy transition into commercial but not guaranteed. plus the military will always a have a job for you as a pilot that may not be the case in the commercial aviation field

Answer 3

Yes the course does include flight instruction at a heafty cost as other answers prove. Most airline pilots come from the Military flight program.

The best way to learn to fly is to join the Air Force as a pilot to get your hours and training and get paid at the same time. Most airlines hire Vets first and you may spend a lot of money and wind up with no job as you won't be a Vet and won't be the number one priority.

Answer 4

Yeah, you will. It's a key component of the degree. You should finish up with at least a CMEII and probalby an ATP as well as several hundred hours of time. Not to mention a breathtaking student loan debt. Part of your costs should be offset by money you earn as a flight instructor in the latter part of your studies.

Answer 5

im in the same situation you are. i am also looking at University of north dakota for their flight school. i know you get pilot training there. i'm very very sure embry riddle also does.

Answer 6

As far as I know the one in florida did but you can contact addmissions and find out. Or just check their web site.

Answer 7

No.

And it's "whether", not "weather". Potential employers look for stuff like that.

Answer 8

Yes it do.
