Lister, likewise 7 weeks to do 25 - 30hrs is entirely doable.

7 weeks x 7 days = 49days x 2hrs = possible 98hrs.

So even allowing for your suggested maximum of 2 hours per day and your suggested 30 hrs, there is a requirement to fly 30% (IE 15 from 49) of the days available.

Now if you consider it is possible and neccessary to fly more than 2 hours per day on some days and that it could be less than 30 hours to completion, it is entirely possible to achieve it.

In my view to simply tell the OP it can't be done is irresponsible.

I know of one individual who, having retired, is flying 3 lessons per day, albeit he does around 3 days per week.
