Answers:
Hey u guys! cherokeeflyer is a fake pilot and a pretender. be aware!?
You may want to subscribe to this blog: http://360.yahoo.com/private_jet_charter... which walks you through all aspects of getting your private pilots license. Additional information can be obtained at: http://www.aopa.org including a database of flight schools in your area.is a ultralight glider classified as a glider or a plane (license or no license)?
Good luck with the flying!
Is it normal to land with just one body gear first?
The cost of getting your pilots licence is between $3500 and $4000. It requires multiple written tests and a physical. You must also fly for 40 hours. 30 hours of which must be done with a licenced instructor. For more accurate information in you area look up flying schools in your phone book. I'm sure there are quite a few in your area.could cost more in your area check out the cost of fuel www.airnav.com or www.navaid.com those can give you some leads to fuel cost in chicago (kinda high as I recall)
What planet or Decade should I say, are you on where a private license costs $3,500? The actual real world 2007 price is closer to around $6,000. Flight schools are going to tell you the "legal minimums which convert into the cheapest costs" Real world is $6,000 and thats for someone who REALLY has the motivation to do it. You end up buying a lot of extra equipment as a pilot/student no one tells you about and you will never make it in 40hrs. If you do your instructor should have his ticket taken.
Question for commercial pilots?
Cost ....like alot in aviation, it depends..it is different all over the county and even on opposite sides of a city For a training airplane the rental fees could range from $45 to $125 hr. Instructors from $20-$75 hr. With the MINIMUM of 40 hrs that is (an average of $85 hr for the plane, and $50 hr for the Instructor. This is $3,400. + $2,000 as a Starting point. Add to that ,ground school material and cost.Books. budget around $125 ground school could be a class, or one on one with your instructor, budget $250.
Medical exam $85-$150 Check ride $200-$400
hat is a total of around $6100 more or less. this id based of just 40 hours. more realisticly speaking about $8,000
especially living near chi town <rant on >home of 'Da Mayor" that likes to demo airports in the middle of the night in violation of Federal Law (Rant off )
Currently, Private pilot applicants are AVERAGING nationwide around 55 hours of training before they pass the check ride.

harrier military jet stiker with short/vertical takeoff/landing?
It all depends on the level you wish to attain. There are minimum requirements for each level as far as flight time as well as the required written and flight test.Considering the cost factor, it will vary depending on how long it takes to get to a certian level. As an example, the first licence you have to get is your private pilot. You have to have a minimum of 40 flight hours. Right now, here in South Carolina, the average charge is around $160.00 an hour. When I was learning to fly, it was $65 an hour.
