I love planes and flying. I fixed aviation electronics for 5 years!
I would love to start taking flying lessons but it cost so much money.:( |

It all depends on what aircraft you choose single engine, multi-engine, crappy plane, good plane etc... lol
For the Basic training Aircraft which is the cheapest is $90/hr. The minimum flight time is 40 hours of flight, the national average to obtain a private pilot license is 71 hours. That's $3,600 for 40 hours and $6,300 for 71. Not to mention ground school and classroom . That's for the cheapest plane!

I've got almost 10 Hours under my belt. But things changed and was getting too pricy.
My dad completed his PPL and flew as part of a team around the entire UK coastline to raise £20K for charity (In the 80's so about £40k in money at a guess).
My Grandad was in the RAF in WW2 working on Spitfires for a while and once had to fill in as a tailgunner for one mission when they were short, scariest night of his life.
So yeah, I love anything aviation related. |
