Image of the seashore With the cost of aviation continuously increasing, my intent is to be transparent with rates.

  • Aircraft rate (Cessna 172): $100/hr dry (fuel typically costs $35-40/hr)
  • Instructor rate: $50/hr

Other notes:

  • A 1-hour lesson will cost around $200.
  • I waive my instructor fee for discovery flights.
  • You can expect a private pilot license to cost a minimum of $8000, including all examiner fees and equipment.

If you have other questions about cost or want to start a training program, feel free to reach out.
