Make a plan
Aviation education costs may exceed federal financial aid funding, due to the flight labs and fuel costs. Additional educational loans are available and there are also a number of industry scholarships and grants listed on the web. Remember, this is an investment in your future career. Make a plan to finance your flight education.
