The state of Hawaii just paid for my type rating plus lodging and airfare.

Correct. Received full unemployment benefits plus a $7000 blank check for a Type Rating of my choice. This was during furlough from Mesaba.

what can you get for $7 thou?

My friend got furloughed from a regional, he's looking into that, problem is he wants a G-550 type, I hear they go $55,000.
