I live in Canada and we have a time requirement of 45 hours to complete a P.P.L.
The average time in Canada is now 70 to 80 hours before a student finally receives his/ her license.
When I learned to fly the requirement was 30 hours, we learned on tailwheel aircraft and used old technology nav aids. how come it takes so long to get a license today with easier training a/c and modern aids???
By the way a question for all you Brits here, I have trouble when flying in the U.K. when I hear someone on "finals" that word being plural I don't know which of several finals the other traffic may be on? Just drives me nuts looking all over the sky for the traffic.
Come on someone help me out here.
