What college are you attending? I joined Alpha Eta Rho when I attended Salem College in Salem, W.V. At the time, it was just another excuse for us to get together for a cocktail and tell aviation stories. Most of us only had our private or commercial ticket so we tended to stretch the truth a little.
I haven't given it much thought or looked into what, if any benefits could be had from former members. Good Luck.
I wasn't AHP, but I was D-Chi. If I had to do it all over again, I probably wouldn't. It's a whole bunch of false promises ("yeah, we got brothers at all airlines the connections are everywhere" just an example). Don't get me wrong, I made some great friends, it just wasn't my cup of tea.
I was also in Alpha Eta Rho during college. So far I don't believe my involvement in the organization has helped me in any way to obtain a job or any other benefits. I agree with pappy - just a reason to get together at the pub and tell stories over drinks. I have heard that there was at least one chapter of AHP that owned a 152 or something for its members to get some time in while they were in school.
I was in Alpha Eta Rho & Phi Theta Kappa at Ohio State (Aerospace Eng, 1994), and at Davis College (Toledo, Ohio) when I was working on my second degree in Aviation.
If you & your friends want to get drunk for no reason at all, people think your a bunch of alcoholics...But if you & your friends also happen to be AHP members, then its considered normal and accepted...
