The aviation department operates a fleet of single-engine Piper Archers, and a twin engine Piper Seminole for flight training courses. All aircraft are professionally maintained by the departments' FAA-certified mechanics. Andrews University's airfield is located 1-1/2 miles from campus, students are responsible for their own transportation to/from the airfield.
Students wishing to enter a non-flying aviation career, may limit their specialization to Aviation Maintenance.

A short video that’s part of the General Aviation Manufacturers Association video series about careers in the general aviation manufacturing and maintenance industry debunks the myth that careers in GA are repetitive and boring.
“Too often people think of a job in the manufacturing industry as entailing repetitive work requiring little skill with minimal opportunity for professional growth,” said GAMA President and CEO Pete Bunce. “We hope that giving the public a behind-the-scenes look at our member companies and watching talented and enthusiastic industry professionals share their stories will shift people’s perception and inspire them to consider a career in our dynamic industry.”
