Sun Air Express pay for training
I was offered a class date with Sun Air Express up in PA. Navajos. Requires me to pay $10,000 for training, $2,500 of which can be deducted from pay.
Covers 6 or 7 flying hours and a 2 hour FAA checkride.
That's $7,500 up front to begin training. All to make $12.50 per block hour as an FO. captains start at 55k. Not bad. I'd get there at 135 IFR mins. (1200 hours)
I know pay for training type FO programs are frowned upon, but it is a job offer and it's multi time.
I'm not a CFI and don't plan on becoming one so my options are very limited.
Should I bite the bullet and view it as an investment in my future, or sit tight and wait for something better?
