Just a quick question. I got approved for a loan that will get me through my CPL and multi/ifr program in 4 months. Basically, I can be a perfectly certified pilot by February. I have heard different stories from lawyers and doctors who had student loans and paid them back with no problem. Very little from pilots though (it seems that most pilots have doctors or lawyers for parents hehe)
My question is, if you have or had been in the situation of flying and paying back loans, A) if you had another chance would you just say 'screw it', these loans weren't worth it or B) It doesn't matter because now things may be bad but in 20 years who knows how far aviation will take me.
I am on my 2nd career, first was teaching for 10 years, and now I am able to make the leap, but want to make it cautiously and hear others opinions.
Thanks all!
