I wanted to post this to get an idea of what the price of a typical flying lesson at the average club is broken down into. I would hazard a guess the majority of PPL students are paying circa £130/hour?
Could someone please tell me what the costs break down into, i.e. fuel, flight instructor rate, maintenance etc. I would really like to find out why it is so expensive
Well when I learned to fly in 1974, I was paying £10.50 an hour and my take home salary was £42 a month. A weeks wages per hour. So £130 an hour is quite cheap in comparison
