No thanks, I'd rather take working as a line guy earning my CFIs without debt than to owe an airline $70,000+ and over 5 years of my life per the contract (I think 5 years is a conservative guess for ab initio programs). Plus, if they lay you off you're still contractually obligated to them so you can't find another flying job.
