This is called rationalization and it gets taught during your CFI as being a common defense mechanism.
Either pay or you don’t.
I’m saying take the high road.
Have you considered what you’re going to tell the HR interviewer at your airline job?

I don't know. What should I tell them?

An employee who has acted dishonorably with a former employer can't be expected to show honor with a new employer, either.
Grow up, wear long pants, and honor your promises.

Pay the bill, walk away.
Next time don't agree to something you won't honor.

You need to see this as part of your career planning. You don’t want this to be “the speeding ticket” that never goes away. Industry is good now and it may seem they hire with all sorts of dings now but when the music stops you do not want this to prevent you from getting a job.
You know...the ‘have you ever’ or the ‘tell me about a time’ questions.
Keep your record clean.
In all aspects.
