How long did your CPL take?

As so often happens, I am getting different stories from different people regarding the length of time that a CPL should take. I have my own ideas, but I'd like some confirmation. This is particularly important, since I will need to make sure I book an appropriate amount of time off work.

So, for those of you who did your CPL in Florida, South Africa or anywhere else where the weather is reasonably reliable:
  • How many days did your CPL take?
  • How many hours did your CPL take?
  • Was it a single- or multi-engine CPL?
  • What school were you at?
  • Did this meet your expectations?

For those of you who did your CPL in the UK, could you please alter the first question to take any weather problems into account? (E.g. "It took me 5 weeks, but because of weather problems I was only able to fly for 16 days in that period")

All replies greatly appreciated - your answers could well have an impact on how I do my CPL. If you'd rather keep these personal details private, then I don't mind a PM or e-mail.

Thanks!

FFF
