Just think, if only Skywest or the flight schools had a budget/loan management class as part of the indoc curriculum... I don't see that happening any time soon, Sku

I agree whole heartedly though. Having crunched the numbers, it's not pretty for years. I can appreciate the fact that you are getting paid for a Type rating and have no contract, but that doesn't pay the bills at the end of the month or help you save for retirement.
