Question
Dear Mr. Avdic:

I am a university student as well as a licenced commercial pilot and conducting a study on "The Significance of Higher Education to Recruiters of Commercial Pilots" for a course in business communications. I will attempt to determine the value of college/university training for pilots in the current and future aviation industry. I welcome and would greatly appreciate your input. If you would like to participate, please feel free to e-mail me and I can send you a copy of my proposal and a list of relevant questions. I look forward to hearing from you.

Answer
Really the college education is extremelly important for commercial and proffesional pilots. That is the reason why is required to have an college degree when you apply for an airline job. Actually, it is not required by the application add, in reality it is mandatory!

I do greatly appreciate your ofer in stady, however I am very busy, and do not have extra time.

Sincerely
ISmar
