A list of aviation jobs that need no flight time and no degree, from my airfield alone: line service, ARFF, ops specialist, fuel farm, wildlife, snow, security badging, and the two people who maintain the lighting vault. Every one of them pays a living wage. Not one of them is in a career brochure.

The lighting vault people. Nobody knows they exist and the airport does not open without them.

Add airport wildlife biologist. Real job, real degree optional, and the most interesting person on my field.
