I completed my PPL yesterday and after suffering a terrible hangover all day I decided to count up how much the PPL has cost me
Well I think I have included everything, I started at Highland Flying School in Inverness before it went bust, then continued with Leading Edge at Cumbernauld. This is the reason I have two different costs. I came to these totals by counting up all my receipts. All costs are UK sterling.
Hours : 16 @ Inverness = 1760
38 @ Cumbernauld = 5245
Landing Fees = 580
TOTAL = £7585
Exam Fees = 140
Skills Test Examiner = 150
RT Practical = 80
Medical = 310
Books, charts, logbook, crp etc = 200 (approx)
Headset = 170
TOTAL = £1050
GRAND TOTAL = £8635.00
I think thats everything, if I think of any extras I will add it on, I hope some people on here will find this information useful if you are considering starting PPL training.
Forgot I still have to pay the CAA for the issue of my licence so thats another £168 (?)
