I don't know what you would do, but on top of paying $60-100k for training, 0-250hrs, I don't see too many people buzzing around the pattern for 1200-1300 hrs.
There might me a few, but 1/2 of 1% is low...
Just think, pay $60-100k for 0-250h. Then pay 1200hrs @ $75/hr wet = $90k. Said and done $150-190k, unless daddy's paying, you're not getting a loan of $90k to tool around in the sky for 1200+ hrs.
And $75/hr is a lowball number.
People will be forced to teach, tow, drop, or freight dog it to build experience. That or they will start forging logbooks.. Either way, I don't see 1300h of pattern work...
