Re: Advice to become a pilot

Nevs all my pircing is 2 years old... but
FAA PPL inc Night Rating $5000, 100 Hours hour building $8500.
CPL and ME $4995 and $1995. None of this includes Accom, Exams etc, su say annother $8000 for that total $28490 or arround £16K (at $1.74 per £)
Ground School was £2000, plus exams and accom etc @ £2000, total £4000
Finally IR.... now that did cost arround £15K, with a first time pass.
So the total cost involved was arround £36000.00 Not bad really.
It included some retakes of ATPL's and a bit of overrun on CPL and IR.
If you want to know which schools I went to, PM me as I will not get into another row today.
