    I have a better idea for Open minds..; Most Colleges have "Distant Learning" courses, (all you need is a Laptop)..Why not Studying something that you would like, get your College degree, while Traveling & enjoying your "Trucking carreer". Then, when you get that Diploma, Go for a better paying Career. All it takes is interest & perseverance in succeeding. Happy Trails..!!!

    Watch the redwings play on nhltv. Route plan, make flash cards for turn by turn permit routes, and talk to family.

    Well Sir......I can answer that for you. I hope this answer brings you hope. It all depend on the facility you choose. For instance, You can pick EMBRY RIDDLE AERONAUTICAL COLLEGE. (Distant Learning). When done...You can become a Pilot, Aircraft and Power plant Mechanic....and I can tell you a Dozen more. Happy Trails..!!!

    A pilot? Nope, not without hands on training.
    A mechanic? Nope, not without hands on experience. Sure they’ll train the online graduate and the high school dropout side by side to learn the job.
