I think if you can

Kelpie,

I think if you enroll in a Uni based flight training program like the one at RMIT you can get most of the cost put on to either HECS-Help loan or FEE help loan.

From the RMIT website.

Full-fee place
If you are offered a full-fee place you are required to pay a tuition fee that covers the full tuition costs of your program. These vary according to each program and are adjusted annually. Only students who are Australian citizens, New Zealand citizens or hold an Australian permanent resident visa are eligible for a domestic full-fee place. Other students may be offered a place as an onshore international student.


FEE-HELP
FEE-HELP is an optional loan scheme that assists eligible students to pay all or part of their tuition fees. Associate Degree in Aviation applicants who are Australian citizens or holders of a permanent humanitarian visa are eligible to apply for a FEE-HELP loan.

I have a strong suspicion that tuition fees means flight training fees
