Financing FAQ

Common questions regarding Stratus Financial loans and the application process.

Stratus was founded by FAA Common Carriers and flight instructors. They understand the pilot career path and offer lending products that traditional banks don't, including 100% tuition coverage and payment deferment while you build hours.
The loan covers your entire flight training syllabus—from PPL to MEI—plus checkride fees, materials, and even stipend options for living expenses during intensive training.
Stratus offers a grace period that aligns with your career progression. You can focus on your training now and transition to full payments once you reach the required hours for commercial employment.
We look beyond just FICO. We evaluate based on a mix of credit score, disposable income while in school, and assets. We typically only need to see strength in 2 out of those 3 factors.
Initial underwriting takes 1-2 hours. Once documents are submitted, final approval happens within one business day. Funding is processed 3 days after signing.
No. You may repay the loan in whole or in part at any time without penalty.
Stratus Financial pays Blitz Aviation directly, so you can focus entirely on your flight training without managing tuition transfers.
