Re: Multi-Engne Time?
ERAU Intern: of course I would have to take out a loan (like most of us) to do this kind of training but I just figure that it would be worth it in the long run.
As for ATP, I have contemplated this idea for quite some time now. Just a few quesion about their program:
ATP- quotes $32,000 for ACPP
How many actual PIC hours do you finish with?
How many hours Safety Pilot do you finish with?
How many Sim hours do you finish with?
How many XC?
I punched some numbers and here is what I got. If I stay and train with my FBO, who should be aquiring a ME FTD in the near future (by the time I finish my PPL).
All figures include plane(ME), instructor, ground, supplies, and FTD.
ME rating- 12 hrs actual, 50hrsFTD, $5290
Insrument- 35 hrs actual, 15 hrs FTD, $8925
Commercial ME- 27 hrs $5101
CFI- 15 hrs $3250
CFII- 8 hrs actual, 3 hrs FTD, $2160
MEI- 12 hrs $2790
CFI single- ?
Single Enginge Commercial-?
totals= 109 actual, 68 FTD, $27,516
now, are these accurate estimates or not even close?
How much is the average for CFI SEL, and Commercial SEL?
Also, my school requires you always have a flight instructor with you in a ME plane (well that is an insurance company policy). how do you log solo time like this? maybe I'm wrong.
anyone care to add some feedback, much appreciated.
Thanks all, I respect all feedback.
