In the country to offer bachelors degrees to pilots in the mid1960s. Today, it continues to be one of the best, most finest flight programs in the country. We have so many people who have been so important. I can tell you that, going back to the beginning, some of the countrys most important figures Billy Mitchell, who was world war i commander of air forces the fodder father of the modern air force were trained to fly by purdue graduates.
