By the way, many regionals have started paying for some ratings like CFI and most pay for an ATP saving people thousands. It's not like the companies aren't doing ANYTHING.
That wouldn't work either. If everyone was handed out a 1% loan flight schools would just charge more for the same instruction.
Maybe something like that after you pay for your own PPL, the player has to have some skin in the game.
