Jordan S asked:


If you were a passenger on a Boeing 737….Would you want a pilot that has more flight time logged/more experience, or would you want a pilot with less experience/minimum flight time logged WITH a college degree in any field?

      Im gonna have to go w/ the more experience. I don’t see how a degree in early childhood education would help save the plane if it was ever in any trouble.

      That’s not the way it works. Sorry. It’s not a choice between a degree and experience. When you are riding in the airliner, you will have a crew up front that have BOTH experience and a college degree. BOTH–not one or the other.

      So the question is a false dilemma. You will never have those two choices as alternatives. Your crew will have BOTH.

      The pilot is intelligent responsible and what degree id rather the extra experience and what degree id rather the pilot is nice but degree in this case not helpful if you run out.
