I would say that the number of hours that you fly over the next few months will very much depend on how many students you have at the moment, how often these students have lessons. and where you are. The winter weather does vary somewhat throughout the UK.
The hours that I'm quoting below include solo authorisations (it's all money). I had a week off at the beginning of November and I make a point of not working over Christmas/ New Year. I work for a small PPL flying school. This time last year I had approximately thirty full-time students. This year I've got about twenty-five. I work five days a week.
