what's the hourly rate for the 300 in your neck of the woods, my discovery flight will cost $250.00US for 1 hour $275.00 regular.

not sure what the rate is, 67N... we have no schools here in sask anymore... :down:

 

maybe some of the others like 412D could give you a better idea... :up:

Great stuff Spartan!

 

Don't sweat the learning curve, it's really more of a learning staircase. You'll advance in massive leaps only to have one aspect bring you to a halt for days or even weeks untill you get it right. Just keep your cool when you "hit a wall" and dont stress yourself out over it.

And don't forget it's not you vs the machine here... it's you vs yourself and the helicopter is the referee!

Looking at BC Helicopters web site: CDN $425/hr ~ US $350/hr :shock: At another western school R22's @ CDN $440/hr ~ US $360/hr. Price for a R22 in the US ~ $185/hr.

 

For some reason Canadian piston helicopter prices are significantly higher than US, turbine prices are usually lower. Why? That's probably a topic for another thread.

 

edit: doh! Jay Flight beat me to it!
