darkrampage,

if it makes you feel better to know you have a degree then well done.

but let me tell you.............it's a complete waste of time.

most i fly with don't have them, and the ones that do hardly stand out. further, some of my mates have degrees and have missed out on airline jobs!

however, you do make a good point regarding delving into the depths of understanding lift equations and the like, that'll make for an exciting conversation across the pacific one night whilst you are amazing your fellow aviators..

edit: by the way rampage, make sure i'm not checking you whilst you a stabbing me in the back.
