<p>Hey my name is CJ and I am a student in an FAA airframe and powerplant course to get my licences as well as an associates in applied science at GTCC in NC. I just finished airframe yesterday and will finish up powerplant and the associates in july and hopefully have both tests finished by august of next year and acquire my license. </p>
<p>I will have 2 years experience working heavy checks on transport aircraft when I finish and 5+ years experience when I finish engineering school. I have decided though that standing on concrete floors for 8+ hours a day isnt for me. I would like to stay in aviation due to the fact that it still thrills me to see 200,000 lb machines fly. </p>
<p>So my question is should I go to (if I am accepted) UNC charlotte and get a degree in mechanical engineering as well as physics (since they offer a double major with only a couple extra physics classes) or NC state which offers aerospace engineering?</p>
<p>Oh and I am on the deans list but have a bad track record at another school due to not being able to afford it and therefore losing my drive to complete my last semester there.</p>
