Re: Aviation degree

Look into Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU). It has a nice aviation program as well as the most advanced ATC training simulators in the world...it is literally one of a kind and was designed specifically for the school...advanced enough that the military and the FAA rent time from them to train. It is very impressive...I watched the military using it to do recurrent training in real time with pilots in aircraft simulators in other parts of the country...all were linked togather simulating that they were in Afghanistan...it was really cool to see.

Re: Aviation degree

The ATC simulator is also linked to all their aircraft simulators located in the flight lab so the "pilot" students can interact real time with the ATC students. MTSU also has a very extensive A&P program as well and the advanced students maintain the schools aircraft fleet which includes a Supercub for TW training and a DeHavilland Beaver

I'll be darned, I didn't know about MTSU's aviation department and I have a cousin who works there.

Porter,

Same, except I used to live down the road and had a few friends that got business degrees there!
