How much does it REALLY cost?

Hi chaps and chapesses,

I'm trying to work out exactly how much I need to complete my training. I already have a ppl with 180ish hours and a night rating.

I've worked out that my choice of schools leaves me a £22,200 bill. Obviously this only covers minimum training. By what factor should I times this amount by to cover me incase the sh1t hits the fan? (exam retakes and extra hours etc)

I was thinking of about 1.2 meaning I'd need to borrow about £26,600.

What do you reckon? Is this too much for a contingency? (I'm trying to borrow as little as I can).

Your opions would be greatly welcomed.
