PILOTS GET DEBT RELIEF

A multistate agreement with Student Loan Express includes partial loan forgiveness for more than 60 Oklahoma student pilots, Attorney General Drew Edmondson said Tuesday. Edmondson and the attorneys general from 11 other states reached a $112.7 million agreement with student loan originator Student Loan Express that includes significant debt forgiveness. The company provided loans to students at flight schools run by now-defunct Silver State Helicopters. Sixty-one state students are eligible to receive some level of forgiveness, totaling about $3 million.
