I didn't have the patience to read all previous 9 pages, so forgive me if this was covered, but how does one spend 100K-200K for flight training? When I trained in the early 90's, I spent well less than 30K to get all my ratings up through MEII, and that included buying almost all my hours to reach 250 TT- and a 60 hour chunk of multi time.

Does that 100K-200K figure include a four year degree (you know, the one that isn't worth more than one from the local community college)?

I'm just curious where these figures come from.
