Graduated in 1963. Best education of anyone I know or have met. Obtained both A&P FAA Certificates, went on to college, obtained my BBA & had a career in Aviation as both mechanic technician and Airline Capt for a major airline. Did my flight training while in college. Aviation taught me that that education pays off & it gave me the thirst to learn.
