University of Cincinnati”€”Clermont College

From the University of Cincinnati: Aviation Technology combines pilot training with the on-the-ground skills you need for a career as a professional pilot. In addition to flying passenger aircraft for major and commuter airlines, pilots also crew cargo jets, corporate aircraft and serve the military and law enforcement.  Others fly emergency medical services, perform aerial surveying and photography and conduct sight-seeing flights. Some pilots participate in firefighting, rescue searches and other public service flying, while others become flight instructors.

Being a pilot requires strict attention to safety, management of crew resources, knowledge of weather and navigation, and intimate knowledge of the aircraft and the mechanics of flight. Aviation Technology insures you learn these skills along with earning your pilot certifications.
