Does anyone know if taining costs are deductible against the salary earned from being a flight instructor in the US?
Thanks
My understanding is that you can deduct educational expenses that improve your abilities in, and your ability to keep your current job. But, education for the purpose of getting a new/better job is not deductable. Years ago I deducted the cost of my private pilot helicopter rating, as the education of getting the rating made me more effective in the engineering job I already held. I was working flight controls for a helicopter manufacturer.
