Yeah, I've always tried to avoid any major amounts of debt. I just need training for the maneuvers and oral exam prep for my Commercial plus I've got about two thousand to pay for previous aircraft rental for time building.
I don't have one specific career path in mind but I definitely want to fly alot more than 200-400 hours per year which it sounds like alot of corporate pilots max out at so that might not be the route for me. Regionals seem like the best way to eventually gain the coveted jet PIC time and my plan would indeed be to finish my degree during that time.
At this point I feel like I'm still looking in from the outside when it comes to really understanding the different types flying careers so I'm still open to most options.
