I did CPL on the cheap--combined fix wing and helicopter,and if completed in one step only required 130 hours.Only problem is that you end up with only 80 hours in a chopper .
,which can be a pain in the arse as most places wont let you hire one unless you have 100 hours because of insurance.They will but put it down as Nav training but you cant take passengers.

Sorry ,that was 105 hours all up---130 i think if you dont do last 30 hours in one hit.Flying school was on Sunshine Coast in Queensland (aus)www.chopperline.com.au.
Was about $30g then but about $40g Aussie now so with the way the aussie buck is thats cheap.
