Assumptions: This calculator projects a 40% retention improvement based on published research showing that structured post-flight debriefs and spaced-repetition study methods significantly improve student retention. These are estimates, not guaranteed results. Revenue loss assumes students drop out on average at the midpoint of their training program. VectoredOps cost is based on list price of $79/student/month — volume discounts are available for schools.
