Yeah, from what I understand of it there has to be some kind of degree/certificate awarded at the end of the program. I don't understand hoe PFJ would be applicable here.

And this isn't a sales pitch but the flight school that I am going to right now is a Part 141, degree awarding flight school that is fully certified by the VA. Don't limit yourself by asking one flight school and assuming that that is the way it is at all flight schools.

I think you might be barking up the wrong tree here and only asking about paying for flight training which is where you are getting the 60% figure. Any flight training you receive toward further ratings can be covered up to 60% by the GI Bill. However, what I am talking about is looking in to a "Flight Academy" that provides flight training and concurrent college courses to the eventual award of a collegiate degree. If the school is an approved degree awarding institution then you are available for the full GI Bill allotment, scholarships, and if eligible Vocational Rehab (Definitely look in to this and see if you are eligible).
