I have been quoted R195 000 to get my PPL/CPL with CTFTC

I am researching SA schools too, have you been told how long the PPL/CPL will take to complete there?

I've had info back from SAFTA saying that it'll take 75 to 90 days to complete my PPL and 10 to 12 months to complete my PPL/IR+CPL?!? This seems like a long time considering schools in Florida advertise a PPL in 21 days. I guess I was expecting to achieve my PPL between 25 to 50 days with the right instruction in the right weather conditions?

What does the R195,000 get you exactly? Is that with accommodation?

The figures I have from SAFTA are R72,400 (£4,600) + Flight and Accommodation for the PPL (C172).

Although I'd love to take the year out and complete the PPL, Night, Hour Building, ME IR & CPL with them at R283,375 (£18,040) + Flight and Accommodation.

Accommodation seem pretty cheap and a flight from LGW to CPT seems reasonable too.
