    Getting a private pilots license is a lot cheaper than I thought once I started researching it. The total cost of everything (school/instructor time/flight hours) seemed to average around 15k. Instead of buying a new car for 40k you could probably reasonably afford a pilots license and a plane share with a couple other people.

      Yes, and people do that. Which was my point.

      There are still health requirements for a license and these are not a pure formality, I think.
