The Professional Pilot program
provides training for entry-level pilot positions within the air transportation
industry. Typically, one becomes a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI)
while earning advanced pilot ratings, and building flight hours in
complex and twin engine aircraft. Presently, regional carriers are
seeking candidates with 400 to 600 hours of Pilot in Command and a
Multi-Engine rating, and the bachelor’s degree. The second program
the department oversees is the BS in Aviation Administration that
supplies the region with qualified administrators, offering concentrations
in Airport Management and Air Cargo Management.
We are the largest collegiate
Flight School in the Northeast Region and the only SUNY School to
offer a 4 Year Degree Program in Aeronautical Science. The Aviation
Center averages 5,800 Flight Hours a Year in Solo and Dual Flight
Instruction. We average over 5 FAA Certification Rides per month
and over 20 Student Progression/Stage Checks per month.
