Quite frankly, I'm not thinking that far ahead at the moment. All I'm thinking about is the PPL. 8000? That's twice the price for the PPL at Long Beach Flying Club. I'll be soloing pretty much right when I get back into training, so I'm not $4000 away from a PPL.
My concern with going once a month is not that I'm impatient, but once a month will get me nowhere. Obviously...
So yeah in a nutshell, all I want is financing to get my PPL, as I'm not too far off. I'll deal with the other ratings in the near future.
