And you still can't fly a plane. Since I've never tried to fly a real plane, it's impossible to know whether I could fly one or not. I soloed in 10 hours. That's okay; it's not a race. At the time, the plane and instructor totaled $18/hr. I wasn't around in World War II. You've spent 720 hours, and what have you accomplished other than indulge your fantasies? A great deal of enjoyment. I like flight simulation. You can't fly. You never will fly. That has not been established, but it doesn't really matter, since I prefer simulation. |

That would have been in the seventies, not WW2, fjukkwit. You've spent 720 hours, and what have you accomplished other than indulge your fantasies? A great deal of enjoyment.

In 1962 the rate per hour solo (NZ pounds) was 3 Pound 10 shillings in a C150 When I did my PPL (in 1967) the rate was $10(NZ) per hour solo and $12 dual in a C150. |

It's still pretty reasonable and do-able in most places. Any enterprising 15 year old that really wanted to fly could probably manage to find a way to do two hours a month. Bertie |
