Rotary Transition Program RTP

We Salute your Service!

Mercer County Community College (MCCC) offers a Rotor Transition Program (RTP) as part of its FAA approved Part 141 Aviation Flight Technology degree program, representing one of the few programs of its kind in the country. This pathway provides a highly focused and efficient transition for commercially rated helicopter pilots seeking to move into fixed wing aircraft and pursue careers in the airline industry.

Infinity Flight Group (IFG) supports this program at Trenton-Mercer Airport by providing a professional training environment, including modern aircraft, dedicated facilities, and an operational structure designed to support consistent, high-quality flight training. Through this partnership, students benefit from training in a structured, performance-driven environment that emphasizes efficiency, safety, and real-world readiness.

Flight training activities are conducted in accordance with MCCC’s program requirements, with scheduling and operational support coordinated by IFG under the college’s direction to ensure consistency and alignment with program standards.

Through the RTP, students complete academic coursework and structured flight training that may qualify them for a Restricted Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate with reduced flight time requirements.

Students are encouraged to consult the MCCC catalog for the full curriculum and degree requirements. For questions regarding VA benefits, certification, or academic advising, students should contact the MCCC Veterans Office at Vets@MCCC.edu.

This program is only available at the NJ location.
