Notes:
All students must show the FAA certificates to the department so that appropriate entries can be made on the computer CAPP report.

The FAA Commercial / Instrument certificate should be obtained by the beginning of the 6th semester.

Flight courses cannot be used for electives

Flight training courses from accredited college aviation programs may be substituted for AES electives with AES department approval.

Students entering the department already possessing FAA Certificates after consultation with an advisor may substitute other AES courses for those courses associated with the FAA Certificates. For instance, consider a student already possessing a Commercial/instrument license: He would meet with an advisor to select 12 semester hours worth of AES courses that would substitute for the required courses, AES 1100 & 1800.  Neither would he need to take the simulator courses associated with those ratings, i.e. AES1710 & 2710. This requires 6 more credit hours of AES courses to make substitution for.
