Chopperpilot47,
My figures most certainly did include landing fees and VAT. The ex-vat rate & ex-landing rate for training and SFH were £210.00 and £160.00 per hour with landing fee at £12.50.
Since I have got a PPL and am currently hour-building, I am fairly certain of my costs to date but still unsure as to what future costs could bite me on the bum later on!!
For everyone,
Just to nail my colours to the mast - I did my PPL(H) in the UK on a S300. Plan to hour build in UK and South Africa. CPL in UK. This is because the UK is where I wish to work - simple as that.
Cheers

PS - I have no connection with the school whose prices I quoted but I have heard they have a good reputation so my emphasis here was also on quality instruction which MIGHT not be the cheapest.
