Comment:
He is a real great professor and a real funny one as well. He only grades the class on 5 assignments though. You will have 3 tests and 2 group projects and presentations. The group projects are really easy and he has you present them in front of the class when you are assigned to do so. He grades easily on the projects. The tests are kind of hard

1) TAKE. THIS. PROFESSOR. 2) DON'T piss him off. Gallup makes every class memorable with the way he teaches his lessons. Plus he comes up with pretty incredible quotes. There's even a Facebook group with a few of them. Keeps you on your toes, but if you follow his rules it won't feel like it.

It was a pleasure being able to take aerodynamics with Professor Gallup, and being an ex-Top Gun pilot, he is extremely respected and had amazing stories to back up the lectures. Class is very clear cut. Read the textbook, review the slides, and do the homework and In-Class Exercises. The tests are very fair as long as you study those.

Aerodynamics isn't easy, but Gallup makes it doable, and his stories are incredibly engaging. When preparing for his tests, study the quizzes, sample problems from the books, and the "in class exercises"

He is a great professor for this class. There is a lot of content to be covered for this class, but he goes through everything in a light-hearted, yet focused manner. His tests are very clear and easy if you do pay attention to his In-Class Exercises and read the textbook. There is nothing in that class that restricts someone from getting an A.

Amazing professor who loves aviation and teaching it to his students. All you have to do is show up to class and you will breeze through it. Every quiz was multiple choice and only took 10 minutes to complete

Gallup is hilarious. He has the greatest stories from his time in the AF and makes the whole class laugh in hysteria. Tests and quizzes are the exact questions from in class exercises (ICE) and homework problems. Do the ICE/HW and you will pass period.

I wrote on 5/13/2017 for AS309, and I have him now for Flight Safety. Gosh, I'm reallyyy going to miss having him, for I won't have any more classes in which he teaches. Overall, extremelyyy smart and experienced, hilarious, and full of great stories! 2 very major partner presentations and 3 Tests about them all. Professor Gallup, thanks a lot!!!!!

Additionally, you are paired up with a partner of your choice to work the 2 presentations with: a past aircraft accident case study and a flight safety topic. The class is literally just assigned presentations; he just listens to them all, comments on them, and grades them. 3 Tests are also given regarding the presentations. I learned a whole lot!!

tests and quizzes are easily passable if you either pay attention in class or read the power points. lectures often turn into old military stories which is cool

Gallup was a great professor. Invest yourself in the class and you will get a lot from his lectures. He adds personal stories to his lectures and they really help visualize specific aerodynamic principles. Really hope to take him again.

AS309 is not a facile course, but taken with Professor "Rick" Gallup, it's feasible to earn an A. I had him for SP17, and he explained the content very well! He also made funny jokes every now and then, which made his course entertaining as well! Three tests, each 25%. Nine quizzes, total to 25%. Overall, very great Professor! I'd take him again!!!

He is a really chill professor. His quizzes come from the in class exercises and homework and the tests come from the quizzes essentially. He goes over via powerpoint and lectures on what you are supposed to know and he helps explain it. He helps review the stuff for the tests a class or two before the exam date.

Great prof! Just do the ICE and the HW and you will do fine on the tests. Great lectures and if you just do the work you should not get lower then a B in his class.

Hilarious lectures everyday. Amazing life stories that relate to class. Tests and quizzes are practically copy and pasted onto the tests from the in class exercises. Wish I could take him again.

One of the best professors I've had! Goes over all the material plus provides real life experiences from his own life. As long as you read over the chapter, everything will be a breeze. The quizzes and tests are copy-pasted from the homework and ICE almost word for word. Overall, great prof. would take again!
