My PPL cost the following:
- Medical: €80
- Opticians checkup: €40
- Membership fees: €360 (annual)
- Club Theory Training charge: €400
- C172R / PA28 Archer III rental: 47 hours @ 2,37 / minute = 6683.40
- Government fees for approval to start ppl test / radio test / theory test / skills test: €440
- Landing fees: €1400
- Initial kit (Peter's Exam Software, Chart, log book, pilot bag etc) €140
Total cost: €9543
Additional costs:
Headset (Lightspeed Zulu) €800
Concerning NVFR, the only requirement is 5 hours flying plus 5 landings so if I want to add the NVFR to it, it will cost me around €900 (as I have to take the plane to a different airfield to start from and return to, taking the plane back the next morning as our airfield doesn't have night landing....
Please note that the costs are what I paid to a flying club, not a commercial school, I would imagine the costs would be around €1500 more if it was a commercial school.....
