Private Pilot Cost and the Private Pilot Training Cost
by Frederick Longe
Telling students exactly what they are going to spend on Training for the Private Pilot License is one thing I have always tried to explain to students. I also make sure I tell them that if they don't stick with their private pilot training, it will cost them more.
You will want to remember that the national average for private pilots is around 65 hours. Most Private Pilot Course Outilnes will be between 45 and 55 Hours once you look into them. There are too many things that need to get covered that are required by the FAA. If you want to be a safe pilot you should plan on at least 30 hours of dual instruction.
If you ask the right questions, most flight schools will be honest with you about the actual cost of your private pilot training. You will want to remember that the number of hours listed in the flight schools syllabus will not be used for the cost estimate, they will use the unrealistic hour requirements put out by the FAA. Since there are a lot of flight schools competing for a decreasing number of students, the cost estimates will in many cases be a bare minimum and will not be realistic.
Below I have listed what a cost estimate from a flight school will look like:
20 Hours Dual Flight Instruction $2,920.0020 Hours of Solo Flight $1,920.00Total $4,840.00
In a lot of cases this will be it. Some Flight schools will try and be a little more realistic. Flight schools will try and stay competitive in general. Since flight training is very costly, the flight schools will keep their prices as low as possible.
If you look at the above cost estimate, you will notice that there are a number of things that are not included. Additional flight training that is listed in the flight schools training program will probably be the first thing not listed in the flight schools prices. You should plan on an additional cost of around,460 since there should be about 10 hours of additional training that the above cost estimate does not include.
In addition to this extra flight instruction there are other things such as books, pilot supplies and headsets that you will need to purchase. Examiner fees for the flight test are not included in many flight school prices. Depending on the part of the country you are in, this fee could be as much as 0.
You will want to find out what your private pilot training will actually cost you at your local flight school. Then you will want to plan the process out so that you understand what you are getting into before you start to spend money. You could end up spending an extra,000 if you make a mistake planning your private pilot license. If you are on a limited budget, this could make the difference between becoming a licensed pilot and someone who is part way through their training.
Once you start your private pilot training, don't let anything get in your way. This is the best way to keep the cost down for a private pilot license. Driving and learning to fly are not the same, you will want to remember this. You will need to be proficient in all the maneuvers and be a safe confident pilot. The quicker you can complete your private pilot training the better.
