Just read Captain A post and I couldn't agree more. Those big name flight schools arn't giving students the real GA expierince and learning about the GA perspective. As Ive read, Flight Acadamy Graduates are not ready to instruct they are ready to fly for an airline.

As for aviation degrees, well some of you know my view. I think getting a non aviation related degree right now would be the best thing because of how unsecure the airline industry is today, and providing a fall back. Look at Delta and Northwest.

Just my point of view.
