Cost

[skier]

How much are/did you pay per hour for flight training? It seems around here in NJ $225 for R22, $265 for Bell 47, and $265 for schweizer. Is this normal?

 

How much is 100LL fuel in your area per gallon? Is over $4.30 about what everyone is seeing now?

Here in Toronto R22 is $425:00 hr, JetRanger is $900:00 not sure about fuel prices. Auto gas is $105:00 per litre or approximately $4:20 a US gallon.

I've been paying $225 per hour for a 269B in Middletown Ohio. I think fuel at MWO is $3.65 a gallon right now.

It sounds like what I heard fuel was at is probably wrong. It could be high $3 range. The quotes I used in my first post were with instructor. It seems like if all the prices you said were with instructor then the prices around here are a little high. If they're without then they seem normal. Thanks for your responses

[Galadrium]

Fuel over here is included in the cost of rental. $225 per hour is the cost without instructor. My instructor is $30 per hour.

Good price no matter what model it is, and at sea level a Beta is just fine.

Usually, yeah, but since I top the scales at 240, the max allowed, I sure could use the extra couple horses the BII has sometimes !

Volition, where do you fly an ec120 at that price? And aren't the insurance reqs prohibitive for solo flight?

thx

[volition]

Glad you ask Log. Actually fly out of Romania, and yes, no solo allowed. P.S.-How do you get VIP Satus. Thanx
