Question

How long did it take you to get your private pilot's license? How often did you fly?

Answer 1

It took about 3 months to get my private license, flying two or three 1-hour flights per week.  I think I had about 52 hours in my log book when I took my check ride.  

Most people will tell you that if you can manage to fly frequently, you can complete your training in fewer hours, because you won't have to waste half of each flying lesson reviewing what you covered the last time.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

6 weeks.  Twice a day.

Answer 3

A little over a year..

I know.. I slacked bad... I stopped flying during the summer and flew about once a week for a while..

Answer 4

3 years.  Anywhere from 3 times a week to once a month.

Answer 5

Cant say how long it takes.......If you can get the hour's required in a week and pass the FAA exams, you have a private pilot's in a week....(no likely to happen) but you get the idea...
