Question
My name is James Kee and i am looking for help with the financing of flight school. I am currently looking to start my PPL as soon as possible. However i cannot find any grants or financial help to accomplish this dream. My goal is to earn My PPL,IFR,MEI,CFI,CFII. If anyone has any help for me please respond. Thank you for your time.
Hi,
not sure about the USA as I'm in the UK. Banks are not well at the mo, they normally give special rate loans for those wanting to obtain a commercial license. Best to go speak to the banks.
Failing that, get a job and do the part time course (although airlines don't like this as much). Or save up for your ppl then the instructor's rating and then instruct people for money whilst boosting your hours.
Hope that helps
