I think its PPL, hour building, cpl then fi rating , but not sure.

Also roughly how much at a cheapish flying school
Think an IMC would come in handy, IR if you could too/instead.

Class 1 Medical
200hrs minimum 100PIC
Flown at least 5hrs in the last 6 month prior to FI course.

So;

PPL (4 to 6 weeks) 45hrs
IMC (1 or 2 weeks) 15hrs
Night (2 nights) 5hrs
Hour Building 50hrs

Not sure what the above will cost you? depends if your doing it in the UK / US / Europe I guess.

Should have say 115+hrs by the time you get here.

Then take time off work and do the following in Aerofan as an example;

Hour Building 7,000 Euros 60hrs
CPL (10 days) 3,900 Euros 25hrs

Should have say 200+hrs by the time you get here.

FI (3 weeks) 5,580 Euros 30hrs

Above will cost 16,480 Euros (£11,100) should you pass everything first time in the minimum hours, and then you need to look at flights and accomodation/living costs. I guess the first stage might cost an arm and leg too.

I only put Night / IMC in there so your not simply burning the hours away. And I'm sure they'd come in handy.
