As a junior at MTSU and flight instructor at the flight school, I love the Aerospace program. It feels like such a small program with how we all know each other, when it's one of the main programs for the university. I'm so glad I made the choice to go to MTSU, and I would recommend it to anyone who's looking for aviation colleges.
One of my closest friends, now flying for Delta, graduated from MTSU. He has nothing but good things to say about the campus, the program, and the staff, at MTSU. For flight-related careers, it's one of the best there is.
i use to work at the Diamond factory and some of those DA40's look familiar. lots of movement in aviation for mechanics, dispatchers and pilots now, looks like a great facility, excellent video
I went to LeTourneau University in Texas, which has a very similar program, only with a Christ-centered education added in. The ability to study multiple aspects of aviation like this has immense value as one can be a controller who is also a pilot who is also a mechanic. Knowing the broader aspects of your career choice gives you a wonderful perspective as you work with the other fields daily. The education I received there was on par if not better than most of the bigger schools, and the cost was nowhere near the quarter-million dollar price tag of the top-three names in aviation education. Great tour of MSTU - It was nice to see their similarities with my own educational experience, and I already understand the hindsight value to each of those students for their own futures! Excellent!
Hello FliteTest, I'm an aeronautical engineering college student and it's so nice to see you do a tour of the MTSU Aerospace program, would be awesome to see more similar content. By the way, I'm a big fan of your builds, just built a customized autonomous FT Mighty Mini Arrow with my team for an engineering project competition. Thank you for inspiring my passion for engineering and scratch-building.
Josh(s) glad to see you checking out university aviation programs.... while you are at it please look into N.I.F.A National Intercollegiate Flying Association. This is PRECISION Aviation with flight teams from most Aviation University Programs that do some flat out amazing things. Imagine watching pilots on these flight teams aiming for landing on a SIX INCH wide line for touchdown......and do it on a regular basis!!!!! This is just one of the interesting things that University programs offer.
If anyone is interested in a career in any field of aviation, be sure to check out the University of North Dakota. They have the largest private fleet of training aircraft in the US, and is basically known as the Harvard of aviation. Awesome school all around!
If you ever start itching for some flying with mountains as the backdrop, come visit Tirediron Aviation and Johnson City Radio Controllers in East TN. :)
Did u guys end up making the run foil plane that you said you would in your episode about aerofoils I think that would be a fun challenge for your vlog
I would love to get into a career as a pilot, but I don’t know how I can with having Dwarfism. Pedal extensions do attach to the Cessna Sky-catcher so I can get my hours in.
No way you guys with that many subs visited this. I live in clarksville,tn, currently a junior in highschool and I'm going to mtsu for flight school hopefully
was trying to figure out whether to go to liberty university or MTSU. Was split as MTSU is closer to home but Liberty i heard was really good. This video just made my choice for me.
Thorgon, You're right, we're a bit mis-named! We really should be an Aviation Department, but the state gave us the name a long time ago, so here we are...
I was saying to myself, "Self, the State of Tennessee ought to fund that program to the MAX!" Then I checked, and there is an aeronautical engineering program at Tennessee Knoxville. So, I'm guessing that state legislators would be reluctant to fund MTSU at the expense of their flagship university.
to be honest you dont need to go through a 4 year or even a 2 year program to be a dispatcher. i did the 5 week course and im a dispatcher for the top regional airlines.
But kids, understand this : I’ve been flying before I ever drove a car! 13 is when I started at Culver Mil Acad. Its amazing for about a minute, then it’s boring! There’s nothing up there: the fun is down here on earth! Where the people are and your family is. Flying is a job, it’s work and it is tedious. It’s not fun after a few weeks. Don’t be mislead or have delusions of grandeur from some movie you saw.
I got my glider pilot licence before I got my drivers licence Then I got my Private Pilot's Licence before I got my (Canadian) g2 licence, so I still couldn't drive by myself. Then I got my instructor rating, and I could drive by myself, but only just now, after I've been teaching people to fly for 4 years can I actually teach people to drive (need to have full G licence for 5 years in Ontario, Canada to supervise a driver).

For the first time in my life I'm glad I'm a Tennessee resident. In state tuition baby, mtsu here I come.
Just sold me on mtsu. Great overview for their summer camp on aviation
Great people with a great program. :)
Was great meeting you guys while you were shooting this!

Great to see my school! One of the instructors was a student of mine years ago. Thank you flitetest!
I was just talking about wanting to do this yesterday! I started researching and found these videos on TH-cam. Within a day of then being uploaded!

FAA Dispatcher here in the northeast. It's the most fun you can have in the field with out actually flying the plane.
Very cool! That place is awesome! I wonder how many students this will bring them.
You should check out Columbus State. We get done with our A&P in half the time and we have a functioning Bowing 727 and Willy Nelson’s Lear Jet.
If anyone is interested in a career in any field of aviation, be sure to check out the University of North Dakota. They have the largest private fleet of training aircraft in the US, and is basically known as the Harvard of aviation. Awesome school all around!
How did I not know about this? I live in Tennessee! Thank you!!
Awesome video. A couple friends and I fly race quads a few miles away from that airport.
I absolutely love the full scale content!
If you ever start itching for some flying with mountains as the backdrop, come visit Tirediron Aviation and Johnson City Radio Controllers in East TN. :)
Awesome, guys! Really nice! :D
I'm in Liberty Universities A&P program. Its an experience. Its not easy, but its going to be worth it.
You guys should head down to Kent State soon to see their program as well
This is so cool!. I can't wait to get my license. I have to save 2 yrs before starting. But it is something to look forward to.
Check out Embry Riddle, and upper limit aviation.
Did u guys end up making the run foil plane that you said you would in your episode about aerofoils I think that would be a fun challenge for your vlog
I would love to get into a career as a pilot, but I don’t know how I can with having Dwarfism. Pedal extensions do attach to the Cessna Sky-catcher so I can get my hours in.
You'll probably need a Statement of Demonstrated Ability (in the USA), but I don't see any reason why you couldn't do it!
this seems awesome. cant wait to do something like this. ill have to wait though.
Man, you gotta come up to UND, our flight line is 2 times the size!
No way you guys with that many subs visited this. I live in clarksville,tn, currently a junior in highschool and I'm going to mtsu for flight school hopefully
Love it!!! Working on my ppl right now!!
This is really cool I know someone that is In rolled in this program know going for a commercial pilot sweet guys keep it up
Wow! Amazing program.
was trying to figure out whether to go to liberty university or MTSU. Was split as MTSU is closer to home but Liberty i heard was really good. This video just made my choice for me.
Please come visit if you're still making up your mind - we'd love to have you!
aw sweet! already signed up for the flight camp in a few weeks so guess that would be a good opportunity!
Very nice video and tour through the flight school and all they have to offer! Great information, thanks!
I hope y’all are gonna go deeper into that flight training y’all had a clip of!
Air-headed Aviator you know it 😉
My first degree was from the MTSU aircraft maintenance program. I thought it was great.
Great to hear from an alumni!
Man I chose the wrong flight school! Maybe I’ll instruct there! Thanks for the great tour
A&P = airframe or aircraft and powerplant?
Dario HxC airframe
Nice video! I' ve bought the ft sportster diy pack and it fly very good!
"flew"
flies
oh ok soz XD
hey plz check out my chanel mabe???
Sry i am german
I suggest you check out BGSU and ERAU as they are the only universities with airports on the campus to learn flight
UND Aerospace is great as well
Devyn De Boer that’s dead unless your a helicopter pilot. Daytona is where it’s at!
Fairs, they have a great engineering program out there. Have fun!
RIP wallet @ERAU. Many better more affordable ways to build your time and get your ratings while earning a degree
Can you build these in RC
Ever heard of OBAP Ace camp?
Seeing a lot of Aeronautics but what do they do that is Aerospace?

Super awesome video guys you guys are amazing and awesome love the video👍👍👍👍
to be honest you dont need to go through a 4 year or even a 2 year program to be a dispatcher. i did the 5 week course and im a dispatcher for the top regional airlines.
great video!
I literally paid $60 on eBay for a Cessna pedal just to see if the pedal extension would fit onto it and it did! 😂
I would love to go to a place like that
A&P means airframe and powerplant.
Was this sponsored?
All good if you can afford it. My unreachable dream.
But kids, understand this : I’ve been flying before I ever drove a car! 13 is when I started at Culver Mil Acad. Its amazing for about a minute, then it’s boring!

You guys are amazing I love yous
where did the other josh go?
SkyPilot 1213 he’s on and off since he runs the music ministry at his church.
Still around! Coming in on an episode this next week! 😉
No way!!!! I plan to be a pilot. I can’t get my license because I don’t have my drivers license yet....
Daniel harman - what country? No such silly requirement in the USA...
I got my glider pilot licence before I got my drivers licence
Then I got my Private Pilot's Licence before I got my (Canadian) g2 licence, so I still couldn't drive by myself.
Then I got my instructor rating, and I could drive by myself, but only just now, after I've been teaching people to fly for 4 years can I actually teach people to drive (need to have full G licence for 5 years in Ontario, Canada to supervise a driver).
Same here , lol
I can’t wait to go to mtsu
Jonathan, Like I've mentioned above, visit our website and/or set up a department tour - we'd love to show you around!
great vid guys
My eyes are kinda wierd so i cant be a pilot :(.. can you fly a paramotor like that?
define "kinda weird"
Technically you don’t need any certification to fly a paramotor, tho physical ability and training factor greatly into its practiy
Depth perception?
It takes my a while to focus, so if i drop a screw in a 10x10 cm area it will take me like half an hour to find ir xd
I think its diffrent in slovakia, and you need some kind of a licence
but its more expensive to get your pilot's license at a college than separately. great place though. im sold.
3:36 GO CAP!!!
Make a Transmitter Fly!
Expeeeeeensive
This could h e been a 30 minute video
Oh dang. exactly 1000th view
Yay CRJ go Bombardier. Quebec FTW /s
Wow

Hi
Don't try to get into commercial aviation. You will starve to death. I know some guys that spent a lot of money doing that and had top stop.
hihihihihihihihi
