Lately I've been heavily considering Western Michigan Univerity, but out of its proximity to home, and much nicer climate, I have started t look at ERAU Prescott as another option. My foremost concern is the estimated flight costs at ERAU, while their website estimates you'll spend anywhere from 60-80 thousnand, I know many pilots have graduated for far less than the predicted costs. Can any ERAU graduates here give me an estimate of what flying will actually cost at ERAU?

get to ATP get your ratings ASAP. get instructing and building time, use the ratings for 1 year credits at a university (utah valley, erau ww, etc etc) do online school while instructing and at regional.

seniority is more important so i have heard.... this is what my plan was.
