Not a bad idea putting it on a credit card. I'd take that one step further though; get one with no interest for the first year, and then at the end of the year declare bankruptcy. (make sure you have your ALL of your training complete by then). You can't escape from student loans, but you can with credit cards. Besides, if you are going to be a professional pilot you might as well get the bankruptcy out of the way early.
