How students pay for training
Most students at TWO2FLY AVIATION pay as they go — billed per lesson, so training arrives as a series of manageable payments rather than one large bill. When you would rather fund a block of training up front, the school works with AOPA Finance and Flight Training Finance, and points students toward the aviation scholarships that fund a real share of flight training every year.
Ways to fund the training
Every path below is one we actually work with — talk to us and we'll help you pick the right one for your goals and timeline.
Pay as you go
The default here, and the reason there is no enrolment package to sign. You pay for each lesson as you fly it.
- Instruction billed at $65 per hour, ground or flight.
- Aircraft billed per hour flown — from $135 per hour with fuel included.
AOPA Finance
A line of credit rather than a conventional loan, which can be used for any flight training program.
- Covers the Sport, Private and Professional Pilot pathways, plus additional ratings.
- Applied for directly through AOPA — TWO2FLY AVIATION is not the lender.
Flight Training Finance
Tailored financing options aimed at specific certificates and ratings.
- Options for Private Pilot, Instrument, Commercial, the Multi-Engine add-on and CFI/CFII/MEI.
- Rates, terms and approval are set by the lender, not by the school.
Scholarships & grants
Aviation scholarships fund a real share of flight training every year, and the school keeps a working list of the ones worth your time.
- The AOPA Foundation, EAA Flight Training, Be Bold, James Diorato Memorial, Ali Safai Memorial and Hector Villarreal Memorial scholarships, among others.
- Application windows and deadlines move every year — ask which ones are open before you write anything.
TWO2FLY AVIATION is not a lender. Rates, terms and approval decisions belong to AOPA Finance, Flight Training Finance and the scholarship bodies themselves, and scholarship deadlines change from year to year.
You don’t carry all the fuel at once.
A long trip is flown in legs, with a stop at the end of each one. Paying for a rating works the same way.
