I wold agree that personally I would recommend neither though. That kind of debt in today's world is ludicrous.
Is ERAU a good education? Most people that attended there that I talked to told a much different story about the quality of their education.
You can get a BS in Physics (or engineering, mathematics, or many other fields) from one of the best universities in the country for less than $65k in state tuition (including tuition/room/board/books/etc...) and then do your flight training part 61 for less than $35k. In-state tuition at some of the best state universities are about $3500 a semester.
