The cost of a piece of paper
Just out of interest,
What sort of $$$$$$ are different people paying worldwide for their licences.
In Australia you would look at
AUD 12000 for a PPL (about 6800 Euro)
AUD 35000 for a CPL (20000 Euro) (inc PPL)
AUD 8500 for a MECIR (4800 Euro)
AUD 9000 for a FIC (5200 Euro)
and about AUD 2500 (1500 Euro) for the ATPL subjects (at this stage we can self study ATPL's and have no in flight test component)
