The Fund provides financing to qualified students pursuing commercial pilot training. Investor capital is pooled and used to originate private education loans through Stratus Financial’s network of flight-school partners.

The Fund is available only to accredited investors, including qualifying individuals, trusts, businesses and family offices. Prospective investors must complete the Fund’s qualification and verification process before investing.

The Fund offers tiered preferred returns ranging from 16% to 19% annually, net of fees, based on the amount invested:

$50,000–$249,999: 16%

$250,000–$499,999: 17%

$500,000–$1,499,999: 18%

$1,500,000 or more: 19%

Like any alternative investment, preferred returns are not guaranteed and remain subject to Fund performance and the offering documents.

The preferred return is calculated annually and distributed monthly, on the 7th.

The minimum investment is $50,000. Investors who have been members of the Fund for more than two years may request a withdrawal by providing at least 90 days’ written notice. Withdrawals remain subject to the Fund’s governing documents and available liquidity.
