Yes have been charging £150 for at least the last 12 years.
Free LPC for club members, just to keep them.(Any member needing a LPC is not really a regular customer).
CFI, my own school, minimum wage, lowest pay for 20 years.
But at least we won't go bust like every other school i have worked for.
Just no money in Aviation at our level.
I know of a R/T examiner that makes more money in one day than i pay myself in one month.
Then you have to compete with schools not charging VAT and private owners renting out aircraft not needing premises with rent and rates to pay, plus any approvals to finance, staff, 3rd party insurance, phone/broadband, heating, advertising, stationary, etc.
I must be mad.....good job mental state is not assessed on medicals!
