Student Loans
East Aviation is proud to partner with AOPA to offer flexible financing that can help make professional flight training more accessible. Qualified applicants may receive a flight-training line of credit of up to $20,000, which can be used for training from Private Pilot through advanced certificates and ratings. With no down payment required, interest charged only on the funds actually advanced, and decisions typically available within one business day, students can focus on training consistently and reaching their aviation goals sooner. Financing is subject to credit approval and applicable lender requirements, and an AOPA membership is required.
