Expert: David Bidwell - 9/1/2009

Question
Hi sir,
      I have a dream of becoming an Airline Pilot but as I'm the only well educated person i don't have many people to give me advice on what to do. I have been accepted into a flight school called Phoenix East Aviation but would like to know that is it better if i do a side course like Aviation Management with it. Also where can i find such a University providing flight training and a side course together and what courses would be appropriate to become a airline pilot like a CPL etc im not that sure please help.

Answer
Hi Assad,First off, Phoenix has a good reputation. I have to tell you though that if you want to fly for the airlines you must have a college degree.  There are many colleges that offer pilot training as well as a magnitude of aviation courses and career opportunities.  You must decide your interests.  I cannot help with that.  I suggest that you look at schools such as Embry-Riddle (www.ereu.edu) or Daniel Webster college and see what offerings that you would be interested in.
Good Luck,
Dave Bidwell
