Student pilot wanting to take terminally ill father flying

Hello Everyone,

I come here in the need of help to achieve a life long dream of mine, as I am in a race against time to take my Dad flying before his Motor Neuron Disease advances too far.

I am a student pilot at the International Aviation Academy of New Zealand and I am currently on stand down due to lack of funding outside of the student loan from the government.

I was stood down in November by the academy's accountant and told I needed $6,000 to come back and continue flying. That same week I dislocated my knee and was unable to work up until about 6 weeks ago.

I had a further meeting with the academy and have now been told I need $18,000 paid before I can continue flying, this has thrown me massively.

So here is my Dilemma, my Dad has highly advanced Motor Neuron Disease and I am in a literal Race against time to get back to the academy to complete my license and take my Dad for a flight before it is too late. I lost my mum 3 years ago and missed out on taking her flying, so I am determined to not let that happen again.

At the time being, I am applying for full time work all over the show and I have been helping my Dad at markets in return for help funding the bill.

So far I have put down $1500 but I need to get the remainder faster than lightning.

I come here to surrender to any powers around me and to kindly ask if anyone can please help me achieve my dream and get Dad up in the air before the clock ticks too far.

Thank you so much for your time in reading this.

With love,

Culain
