For crying out loud, unless I missed it skipping some of the replies, I think the best thing for xlr857 to do is go the military route. The AIr Force and ANG are looking for pilots, and while the commitment may seem long (8+ years), he'll get a decent paycheck, the BEST TRAINING, plenty of hours, and by the time his commtment is up, the airline industry shoud be well back on its feet again. Uncle Sam picks up all the flight training costs and all you have to do is serve your country (as I think everyone should want to do). At 26, he's still 4 years from breaching the maximum age limit, so it really is a no braininer from my perspective.
Best of luck, though.
