Question How long to gain PPL(H)

Hello All,

I'm thinking of doing my PPL(H) in the early part of next year. What is the average time that a person takes to achieve it?
When I did my fixed wing - I think it took me about 50 hours to get. I've heard that Heli's are rarely done in the 40/45 hours required (Is this a myth?)

I know its all down to the individual - but is there a general consensus on this?

Also, what is the price differential in doing it in the UK and the USA? Given that I'm familiar with the UK airspace setup via my PPL(A).
I would look to do the course in 1 hit 2-3weeks I presume.

Many thanks

GV
