8. I understand that the Forces to Flyers initiative will not cover approximately $13,526 in training costs that will be incurred within my first 12 months of training and that I, with or without assistance from my training school, must provide these funds. I understand that $13,526 is the equivalent of the 100% benefit level of Post-9/11 GI Bill funding for one (1) academic year of vocational flight training. I may pursue this option to cover the $13,526 in costs or I may pursue other options including using my own funds. The flight school has also informed me of any additional costs associated with flight training for which I will be responsible.
