Costs - am I in the right ballpark?
Hi guys,
Am I roughly in the right ballpark, please, for costs? I'm an NPPL (Microlight) holder with 150 hours or so + I have about 28 hours of non-microlights incl 7 hours P1 in non-microlights.
1) FAA PPL (because the FAA will give me credit for microlight hours) - £8K
2) FAA night rating - £1k
3) Hours: 80 in the USA = £6.5k (roughly) - reduction from 100 due to prior experience
4) CPL/IR/MEP @ FTA in Shoreham - £25K
5) ATPL theory via Bristol - £2.3K
6) Medical - £600
7) ATPL exam fees - £71*14 = £1K
8) USA flights, accommodation etc - £3K
9) MCC/JOC - £3K
10) Contingency - 10%.
So all in about £55K.
Does this sound right? What am I forgetting?
Thanks!
