I am hour building with my local club and am making use of the uk airspace to familiarise myself before CPL.
£5250 for 50 hours at my school, which is expensive, especially when some airfields charge 12-21 quid for a landing (add in lunch of course as that's what flying is all about
)
However I have a full time job and fly 3 hours a week while doing an ATPL, the money I save by living and eating at my parents house and the money I earn at work, balance out the costs of whamming in loads of cheap, pointless hours abroad. I feel it is well worth the experience, even if the weather seriously gets me down sometimes.
