Man you guys have it good! Looking at about $450CDN/hour wet, solo or dual make no difference either.

[ChprPlt]

We have a quite a few Canadians that come down just for that reason

Bristow is $225 wet +40 for instructor.

[Justin DBC]

At L.A. Helicopters we're paying $220 wet and $270 wet with a CFI.

[adam32]

Thanks guys, I'll be around $240-250 solo, plus $40 or 50 for an instructor. That number seems to work out okay.

[IFLY]

At Arizona Aero-Tech we're paying $220 wet and $270 wet with a CFI, $10 less for block rate.

[dave7373]

Wow, I had it good. Just last year I paid 190$(block rate no instructor)

I think it was $210 or $215 hour to hour and an extra 25$ an hour for an instructor.

That was Sun Areo helicopters in Lansing, Il. Near Chicago.

HA...thats what I do!

 

Last time I flew was April of 2008...it was $190 hr solo...I don't want to know what it is now...

 

Advanced Helicopters

 

Love the Staff though so its worth it

[Liner]

Wow

 

I'm looking at $350 wet, w/CFI, or $300 for 20 hr block.

 

With only two schools local, I guess they can get that kind of $$$.

 

Four schools have gone out of business here in the last 1-2 years, so I guess it's a sellers market.

Prices have gone up but are still extreamly reasonable. There seems to be an average price in the northeast of 210 wet here and $30-$45 for the instructor. We have three schools all within an hour drive of each other here in DC/MD/VA. That seems to be the going rate for all three. I think one school just lowered thier price back to 190 non block rate but not 100% sure.

Who is charging that much for R22? Where are you.

[Liner]

Minneapolis. Actually, this is the only R22 facility in the area. The other school has Schweitzers.

 

The facility about 2 hours south sold their helicopter and no longer train.

 

The big outfit out of Ohio tht had helicopters about 2 hours north took all their toys back home.

 

The next nearest R22 is over 3 hours away.

 

Now, I haven't actually paid for flight time yet. This is what was quoted. I was told this is the charge for actual flight hours and they don't nickel and dime for time spent moving the helo in and out of the hanger, prep and paperwork, etc.
