Why these tools exist
I passed my PPL written at the end of 2025, and my goal is to have my private ticket in 2026. Right now I'm busy looking at flight schools in my area and, as part of that, digging into how people actually pay for training—loans, rates, deferrals, and grace periods.
I put together these tools so you can plug in your numbers and see what financing might look like, plan weight & balance, and handle other practical tasks. They're the kind of things I wanted when comparing options—so here they are.
