I realize that this post is a bit old and no one may see this, but my understanding is that you are not tied to the approximately $10,000 per year cap under the Post 9/11 if the flight training is part of a degree-granting program. Furthermore, that degree could be an associates, not necessarily a bachelors. There are a number of flight schools who have partnered with community colleges to offer programs that take advantage of this (for example, Central Oregon, as already mentioned). If I am wrong please correct me. But here is a quote straight from the VA website:

"If you are enrolled in a degree program that consists of flight training at a public institution of higher education you can be reimbursed up to the public school in-state cost of the training and receive a monthly housing allowance and books-and-supplies stipend."
