Yes, I suppose that sounds about right as most UK students do not complete after 45 hours training, so 45 US training hours and 10 hours UK training hours is still more cost effective, and it gives the PPL the benefit of US flying too. I'd agree it's best to budget for some hours of dual training in the UK (or Ireland) on completion.
