very good advice considering the rising fuel prices and the current instability of the industry. Taking out a 65K loan sounds like a big risk to me. I have to admit though, it is extremely difficult but impossible. I mean after all you have to factor in rent/mortgage, car payments, bills, etc. and how many hours can you fly with that paycheck? Unless you get paid a lot, live with your parents it could work. But if not...Get used to Ramen Noodles and PB and J
