Title: Aviation Schools
Post by: hatentx on April 06, 2009, 11:42:04 PM
I am trying to find a respectable school that comes close to awarding an Asociates Degree for A&P.  I am just looking to boost my resume a little by adding a degree.  Anyone have any Ideas?  I have only seen 2 online so far but none that I have heard of.

How/where do I sign up for that program? lol

I'd love to finish up my Private Pilot license- anyone know of CAPer CFIs that give discounted rates? I wish I had finished it as a Cadet- I could have saved sooo much money doing it through CAP back then.

Spartan School of Aeronautics in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Don't know about the online bit, but they have a terrific reputation.

I know of several CAP CFIs who give lessons to CAP members free gratis.
