Don't listen to the naysayers
Fleetflyer put it rather well I thought "Don't listen to the naysayer"
I run an aviation experience website based in Ireland and this pays for quite a lot of my flying. Although I am doing this for the love of aviation and not as a profit making company it really has broadened my aviation life.
Last weekend a group of us went gliding for a day over the mountains and lakes.
This weekend we have helicopter tours on of Dublin city/ Zoo followed by 2 course lunch.
And soon we will be doing air-experience flights with a local AOC holder.
With each of these operators (all based around my local field ) I did a deal whereby for each paying customer they would pay me a percentage and also let me fly on said trip for free !
Then start your aviation group and hunt out Air-Experience enthusiasts through hobby websites etc, these are the paying customers who will fund your flying (but not 100% of your PPL I would imagine)
All the software you need to run these websites is available on line and fell free to pm me for more info.
Anything is possible I would say ....
