We tell students to generally plan to budget around $12,000 total to accomplish their Private Pilot License with us, however, this amount varies person-to-person. Depending on how often you fly, how much you study, and your natural ability to fly the aircraft, the total time and cost to accomplish the training will vary.
Our hourly cost is as follows:
-Instructor time: $70/hour
-Cessna 150 Rental: $130/hour
-Cessna 172 Rental: $165/hour
Lessons are usually around 1.5-2 hours with the instructor total, and around 1.0 hours in the aircraft.
We require no payment up front after the intro flight. You can make payment after each lesson on a lesson-by-lesson basis, or fund it through an account with KFI.
