IS FINANCING FOR ME?
Your flight training benefits best when you can fly frequently because you retain the skills and are able to advance onto new ones more quickly.
Our flight training is ‘Pay-as-you-go’ in which you pay at the end of each flight lesson (approx $195/hr with aircraft rental and instruction). Sometimes funding for frequent flight lessons is a challenge and that is where financing comes it. Financing allows you to make a fixed monthly payment while allowing you to do more frequent flight lessons without worrying about funding.
Other financing options include credit cards or personal loans through credit unions.
Stratus Financial was founded by FAA Certificated Flight and Ground Instructors passionate about helping others achieve their aviation dreams. We know it’s not just about achieving your dreams (because we looked up in the sky every time, we heard an airplane too!), but funding your family’s dreams as well. That’s why Stratus was created, because with Stratus, the sky is no longer the limit.
