Approximately how much does it cost do get your pilots licence?

Question

Private, that is.

Answer 1

To get your private pilot rating here in the US it usually ranges between 5800.00 to 7800.00.

Answer 2

The above figure is about average and going up everyday due to the cost of avgas.

One way of possibly saving a few bucks might be to look for a  flying club at a local airport that owns its own plane(s). That will usually save you about 15-20% over a flight school in rental costs.

Just very briefly, the above figure reflects a minimum of 40 hours of training with an instructor and as the other answer suggests, most people take a little longer than that. You must also complete a ground school (in person or on your computer), take a written exam, have a flight physical, and finally, pass your check ride.

Answer 3

That depends on what school you go to... and how good a pilot you are. My dad got mine for around 5,000$

Answer 4

About 7 k.

Answer 5

about $6-8,000.  When comparing schools you'll notice some advertising cheaper, but that price is for the minimum time required, most student require at least 25-50% more than the minimums.
