There are plenty of non-techie degree holding pilots out there.</description></item><item><title>Choosing a Major for obtaining a slot and a successful pilot career?</title><link>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/11296.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 25 Mar 2012 06:41:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:11296</guid><dc:creator>gmlogmd7</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/11296.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=33&amp;PostID=11296</wfw:commentRss><description>Alright here's my situation. Ive been a F-16 crew chief in the ANG for about four years and have dreamed of being a fighter pilot since high school. I will have about 60 college credit hours after this semester. My original plan was to get a  Bs in mechanical engineering, because I was behind on my math my graduating date wont be until May 2015. So what I am contemplating is possibly changing majors to aerospace security. The benefits would be a closer graduating date and a higher GPA. I would LOVE to be a pilot and as much as I want to be an engineer, pilot is #1. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S. I plan on obtaining a pilot slot through the ANG base that I have been enlisted.</description></item></channel></rss>
