Curious About the Cost of a Pilots License?

10 hours pre-post flight instruction.......................$400
FAA Flight Exam................................................$325

We also offer instruction for Instrument, Commercial, Instructor and Instrument Instructor ratings and Tail-Wheel Transition.

Instruction for the Commercial and Instructor rating is done in our Cessna Cardinal RG. The Tail-Wheel transition is done in our Piper Supercub.
