Flight Training at Embry Riddle (garmin glass cockpit)

[rev4life03]

Wow that looks so hard to fly...NOT

[J450]

i got accepted to daytona, but im still trying to decide if i want to go or not. i applied for science in aeronautics, and want to be a naval pilot, but i've been hearing different things about this school and im not sure if i want to go yet.

[CrimsonGetsu]

is there any courses in high school that i should take to have better chances of being accepted on this school



[frequentairbusflyer8]

@CrimsonGetsu

I know its a drag but stick to your maths and sciences for the Aeronautical Science degree at Embry. Try and achieve higher in the easier classes like gym, art, etc... to compensate for lower math and science grades if you aren't as great in them like I am.

[CrimsonGetsu]

@CrimsonGetsu haha taanks great advice.. but i mean is there any sugestive cources.. since im a junior and im pretty much done with all the requirements and core courses and im taking dual credit.. and i was considering an early release schedule unless ERAU would rather see alternative classes in my transcript

[navymmw]

@CrimsonGetsu if you have above a 2.5 you will get in. Its not as hard to get in as some people think

[CrimsonGetsu]

@navymmw kewl thankz

[aolambros]

If you don't have the money, go major in another field in University and fly on an FBO.. it's the best and most economical route. However, I am in love with these 3 amazing schools.

[HighFlyer2017]

I want to go there so bad. I'm a sophomore in high school and I'm working on my ppl right now. I'll get my ppl when I'm 17 and I have a gpa a little over a 3.0. Does anyone know if this is good enough to get in

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@HighFlyer2017

you should be good man.

[Kjem315]

@HighFlyer2017

Yeah a 3.0 sounds pretty good. I just got accepted for the fall 2011 term and i had a 2.7 at the time i submitted my app. Just make sure your 3.0 is backed by tough courses and some extracurriculars and you should be good.

[fsxAIRLINEguy]

qoq amazing video...QUESTION: how hard is it to get to embry riddle..im only in 7th grade but im planning to go there,,i love flying but just wishing i can get in..how hard????

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@fsxAIRLINEguy

well you need a fairly high gpa to get accepted and be prepaired to pay alot :S

[fsxAIRLINEguy]

@frequentairbusflyer8 thank you very much..hope i get the gpa needed and there not to selective and they realize i love flying :D

[CincoSnare76]

@frequentairbusflyer8 That's the reason I'm not going. I got accepted but there's no way in hell I can afford to go there :(

[Mrsoapyslinky]

dude i want to go here really badly. im just wondering like is there a certain GPA i should have from highschool to get accepted? im sure there is and if you know thatd be great. thanks

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@Mrsoapyslinky

Notta problem, they look for a 3.0 gpa and higher if I'm correct.

[Mrsoapyslinky]

@frequentairbusflyer8  thanks dude

[AMC0404]

wow, I would definitely consider ERAU. Would you comeback to Canada after ERAU and build your hours or are you thinking of staying in the states, just out of curiosity, i'm in the same boat.

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@AMC0404

I would not come back to Canada and here's why. For one, I'm originally from the States and I like the weather a whole lot better. Secondly, the commercial airline market is not as competitive as in the States. Meaning they have waaaaay more airlines then in Canada, resulting in a better chance of getting a job after graduating.

[AMC0404]

Man, you go to ERAU? Its amazing! But I heard its like 50 000 a year!!

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@AMC0404

Not yet, but will be attending there soon! This was an introductory flight! (I know, the cost makes me want to puke, but I'm doing it through the ROTC program so it'll be all paid for)

[sushiboy805]

@frequentairbusflyer8 what do you mean by tht. I want to go to embry riddle but wanna save money, how does the ROTC program help ? what is it? thanks greatly appreciate it

[frequentairbusflyer8]

[VIR092]

Now that's the good stuff! I can't rememer the first flight I took in a Cessna...I was only two years old!

Matt, you have done it again. Good work! You'll be a great JetBlue Pilot!

Kudos

-Mark ;0)

[ionutshowcase]

I have a question . '' Touch and go '' is aborted landing ?

[frequentairbusflyer8]

@ionutshowcase

No, didn't get around to filming the actual touch and go's, but the training for this flight was classified as a touch and go/ go around training exercise.

[ionutshowcase]

you're a pilot ?

[aahubert]

Very Cool Matt!

[KLM777300er]

[remkef22]

[dva511]

[frequentairbusflyer8]
