Perhaps one reason demand is so low is because of the cost of becoming a
pilot.


So you're saying that because it costs $7,000 to become a pilot, people
are unwilling to spend $300,000 for an airplane.


No, I am saying that because it takes a year to become a pilot, people are
unwilling to spend $300,000 for an airplane. The time investment is far more
expensive than the monetary cost. Always has been.
