Embry Riddle.....the Harvard of flight schools

[Bluto]

To be fair, I heard it referred to as the "Harvard of the Air" by a Riddle student in a theater full of Riddle students, all of whom laughed, loudly, at the ridiculous suggestion. Bottom line, even Riddle students don't believe that crap.

FLAME ON

in 10 years Riddle students that were actually man enough to pay for there own schooling and not an excuse to spend mommy and daddy's money but didnt want to try a real college will look back at Riddle like a fat chick they woke up with and a bad hangover. Wait those ER geeks wish they could even get the fat chicks. FLAME ON

 

[belchfire]

I dunno. I learned to fly from an old guy out of a 1688' long strip. Didn't seem to hurt me too much.

The fact that I'm older now than he was when I started says something...

 

[BoilerUP]

It's the Fedex of regionals.

LMAO!

 

[Flyby1206]

The stupid saying originally came from a wall street journal article about 8-10 yrs ago when the industry was booming and it made mention of embry-riddle as the source for many of these pilots calling it the 'harvard of aviation schools'

 

[Prop2Jet]

Goahead what's your deal? You seem very hostile? Dropping the F bomb a lot.... Umm could you be a Hardvard grad also?

 

[suupah]

Embry riddle grads are far better pilots and that is reflected in their quicker advancement, superior job performance and higher salaries as compared to Joe's fLite shak FBO grads.

wait no they aren't

 

[jellynuts]

i bet the guy that told you that is a no-talent ass clown, just like 99% of the people that go there...

I heard that in France they don't call it a quarter pounder, they call it a Royale with cheese.

Royale with cheese huh? What do they call a Whopper?

Oh, on the Riddle thing...f*ck Riddle and f*ck their now broke a$$ CAPT program. They both know how to do one thing well: take your money and run!!!

 

[bogey383]

Riddle is a horrible school, for a bunch of tool bag, no pu$$y gettin mofo's. Oh wait the only pu$$y ya'll get is from the high school girls you have to stalk.. Moreover, a ton of you have trained with my old flight school for your CFI's and you were sorry. I feel so bad that you waisted all of your money and received so little.

 

[Fblowjets]

Which is worse riddle or delta connection academy? Hard to tell.

 

[Turtlesfly]

I love the stereotypes - all UND grads are like this, all Riddle people are like that . . .


You people wouldn't say that all female pilots are stupid - or that all flight attendants are f_ags or that all Muslems blow people up.

Well, maybe you would say that after all.

Not defending any institution, believe me, just seeing it for what it is - school racism. And you look pretty stupid.

 

[I_Love_Lamp]

. . . you wouldn't say that all female pilots are stupid

No, just all women.

- or that all flight attendants are f_ags

just the male ones

or that all Muslems blow people up.

Just the ones I don't like

How is it that you can try to preach these values with a slutty, seductive chick as your avatar? LOL.

Some people are just a "waist" of space.

 

[Sioux115]

I thought UND's motto was "Harvard at 30,000ft." I can't find it on thier site anymore though.

 

[crashpad]

It depends on the person....however, Comair trains pilots to one standard of "FVCKING DANGEROUS! "

 

[arthompson]

I'm a riddle student (distance learning program) because it fits in with my life better. I think the education there is good, I've had good professors so far. I however don't believe that pilots are trained better or worse there, a pilot is only as good as his instructor. FWIW I have a friend that went to the Riddle Campus and thought after a 4 year degree she could have spent less for the degree and been in the same place.
