this is exactly what you are looking for: Civil Air Patrol Online

you can continue your training for free, only need to pay a nominal charge for the aircraft/fuel. i think it is something like $47 per hour for a Cessna 206. CAP instructors cannot charge for instruction in CAP aircraft.

missions will be free flying, as will things like cadet orientation flights.

Running out of money for flight training?? Gee...that NEVER happens!!!

It took me about 3 years to earn all my ratings..only because I had to pay for everything out of my own pocket.

Work for a few more months and acquire the funds......be patient. Finish what you start, earn the CFI/CFII/MEI.

Just don't give up........

If you don't mind the drive, try looking for Fire Patrol positions. Check out Stroudsburg, PA. A buddy of mine used to fly their C172-RG. He built up roughly 300 hrs. doing that part time over the course of about a year. And it was a paying position. It's worth a shot. If you are interested, PM me and I will see if I can dig up some info.
