"flyprototype" If you can afford the Pay to Fly, I doubt you have a major problem with money, it's more likely only those with more money then sense can afford such "programs" - so I doubt they will actually cause any accidents due to this. This is more wishfull thinking by those "wannabes" who can not afford such schemes.
Nothing apparantly indicates that "these" pilots are less able, more tired than others.
I could do such program if I wanted eventually, and I would not be tired because of lack of money, personally I wouldn't do it because I think it is an own goal, even though I admit I was tempted in the past.
But given a chance with secure job, would I pay for a TR to get myself an advantage, sure I would. Number one first!
