$16,619.85

That's the cost for your ticket in Europe.

(Assuming 55 hours, *not* including the seven tests, materials and ground
school.)

One hour of dual training in the U.K. - $315.27
One hour of single engine trainer rental in the U.K. - $285.27
One gallon of 100LL in Europe - $13.00

I'm glad I'm on this side of the pond.

Give it a little more time. The politicians and the fanatics are working
on it now. We should get caught up fairly soon. :-))

In France, it's more like $20,000. Add another $20,000 for an instrument
rating, if you want that.

Europeans have a stronger sense of social stratification and inherited
entitlement, so only the nobles are expected or permitted privileges such as
flying their own aircraft.

No, I used two references, a U.K. one and the second one was a German
reference posted today with an estimate of $16,000 USD at the current Euro
exchange rate.

I posted this because I've been interested in what it costs to get a ticket
on that side of the pond. I'd be interested to see your numbers.

It can be done for less. For example, at my school, an hour of dual (tacho
too, so you only pay for about 50 mins when flying for an hour) is UKP 114
(about $227.20 according to XE.com). My ground exams are free, and I'm not
doing any real ground school to speak of (teaching myself from the
recommended texts, which are about UKP 100 or so.

Nope, wrong again.
