Flight Schools With Financing

Are you looking for flight schools with financing solutions? Paragon Flight’s P3 Professional Pilot Program encourages pilots to complete training faster and more affordably than other options, and our team has a broad degree of experience helping pilot candidates identify financial options and secure the ones that are right for their situations.

Flight Schools With FinancingParagon Flight’s dual authorization as a Part 141 and Part 61 flight school allows us to offer greater access to financial resources and a diversity of training programs. 

Finances prevent too many pilot hopefuls from achieving their dreams. We at Paragon Flight recognize this problem, so we consider providing students with assistance to find the right financial package to be an essential part of our process. Typical options may include any of the following:

  • Traditional student loans
  • Grants
  • Aviation scholarships
  • Personal lending
  • Much more

The financial assistance portion of the P3 program is just one leg of the footstool. We also prioritize quality of training over quantity and the development of leadership skills.
