You right. But like, ironically, I can't do the training with a family to care for.
When I asked around to the other flight students on how they are paying for it, it was 45% GI Bill, 50% daddy/grandparents paying for it, and the rest were paying bit by bit or finally making enough money to afford it.
It also depends if you go with a school or an independent instructor. I spent a good chunk of cash getting my PPL before I decided to change careers because of how expensive every step towards my ATP would be
Yeah, I went 141 and est total cost was over 150k but that has government assistance for a portion where I didn't have to pay up front.
Part 61 is absolutely cheaper overall but you have to pay up front with no assistance.
