Have any of you done this while working here full time? Also, I don't have a business undergrad degree, just a useless aviation degree. Any thoughts welcome.

I've got their MS in Information Security (active duty USAF) and recommend the school.
Auburn also has a on-line MBA. Not sure the price but it can't be beat/
If you're looking for a fall-back career I recommend getting your CFP (certified financial planner). I've got that as well and you can make a good living during the down times in the airline business.
I don't currently fly for the airlines but if I did I'd be at a fractional. Since I have no flight time past a commercial SE / Instrument SE. My 2nd career is going to be with Alpha Flying. No complaints here.
Good luck.
