Quick, Important, BAH Note.

Short Version: a student studying with a 141 school partnered with a community college will receive the BAH rate of where the community college is located. NOT the flight school the student is attending.

Long version: I’ve recently started listening in the past 48 hours and I’ve learned so much already. I’m a private pilot ,120+ hours, active duty navy and looking to get out to fly .
I had the original plan of doing that before my first enlistment was up. But once I started looking at finaces I realized the BAH rate for the area I was living in would not cut it. Now that I’m grounded and have a very supportive wife, my plan is to once again , get out and go to school.
I’m currently looking at Hillsboro aero academy in Portland, or. Which is partnered with Portland community college. In this instance my BAH rate will match the area I’m living in since the community college is actually in the same area.

One school I looked at in Hawaii was partnered with a community college out of Alabama. Could you imagine living on the island with a BAH rate from a zip code in dixi?

If you have any questions I need to clarify please call.

Did you know that if you retire from the military you will no longer be eligible for the GI Bill?

I am also currently on active duty Navy, I’m looking at getting out at the end of my contract and continuing with my flight training using the GI bill,I wanted to ask how your experience went. did they pay for the entirety of your flight school? did you receive BAH the entire time?

Thank you for your time and attention to this.
