My flight training is coming out of my own pocket right now. Once I have my private taken care of the GI Bill will cover a good chunk of the rest. My flight school is VA qualified so that's going to be a big help finishing the rest of my ratings. That is one thing I forgot to mention, if you enlist, sign up for the GI Bill. While you're active duty you can go to school for free, basically, but you can always use the GI Bill for furthering your education once you get out.
