Flight Pay

[NROTCMemTIGER]

I was wondering if any NROTC units are paying for the students to obtains FAA licesnse through their major? I'm enrolled in Commercial Aviation major at Memphis, and I'm required to have 3 FAA licenses to graduate. So, I was curious if I could get the navy to pay for flying since its a requirement of the major.

Take Care,

I believe they do if it's part of your major. Contact your advisor if you're in NROTC, or the local rotc unit if you're not.

For those who have been service selected into Aviation the NROTC will pay for 25 hours of flight instruction in pursuit of a ppl. That's about it.

Thanks for the replies, my LT was trying to figure all this out. I was just wondering if anyone was currently getting their flight pay with their major.

Thanks Again,

flight pay and getting their expenses paid for are two different things, which are you trying to find out?

I was trying to figure out if anyone is getting their flight expenses paid for. I was talking to a girl down in NROTC Embry-Riddle and she said they were getting their flying paid for, but they are FAA Part141 and I doing my flying FAA Part 61. That would be awesome if they did pay for it all.

Thanks,

My brother went to Embry and their flight charges were rolled into their tuition, so the scholarship was just paying tuition, not flight pay, per se. So if your flight stuff is charged by the university the scholarship just sees it as tuition. That's what he and his friends said when I asked them about it last night. They all did it.
