What you have to ensure is you compare like for like.

Sounds strange , but there are several ways to calculate an hours flying.
  • Brakes off to brakes on.
  • Tacho time
  • Hobbs meter
  • Airborne time plus 10 minutes
  • Aircraft type
all spring to mind.

Also does the rate include landing fees? does solo flying get charged at dual or solo rate whilst a student? and proably several other variations.

So it maybe does not answer your qustion, but hopefully does gives you some help in comparing prices.
