When does your hour lesson start?
Further to my recent "How much are your lessons" thread I have discovered that there are differences between schools as to how your hour is actually calculated.
I fly from a busy international airport (EGHI) so I pay top wack for my hour, but then I get to mix with the big boys and my RT benefits, though I have to make several costly orbits.
But when exactly does the meter start running?
1) Is it on the Hobbs?
2) Brakes off to brakes on?
3)Take off to landing plus 10 mins?
4) take off to landing minus orbit time? (being a bit optimistic here!)
5) any other arrangement?
Would be interested to know.
Have fun!
