Three Ways to Save Money on Flight Training

By Rod Yeager Jr


Ever wonder if it is possible for you to save up money when it comes to your flight training? You'll be surprised to know that you actually can. Yes, there are ways that you can minimize the amount of money you have spent towards your flight training. Here are three ways that you can make sure you can keep costs as low as possible for your private pilot training.

Contrary to what people may actually think, flying frequently and in longer times per session can actually help you save money in the long run. This is because you get to learn a lot more in one sitting as well as log in more time for your pilot's book, thus bringing you closer to your private pilot certificate than you would flying just once or twice a week. Flying 2-3 times, then, is highly ideal for your money-saving goals.

No, it doesn't mean that you put together your own flight simulator literally. It simply means that you have to spend some time simulating that you are flying a plane (don't do it in public though) while sitting on a chair.

The most ideal time to do that is when you are in deep thought, and thus you can go over most if not all of the previous lessons you had with your instructor. This will enhance your aptitude and help you master the maneuver or procedure faster. You'd be on your way to your first solo or your private pilot checkride before you know it, and spending less money to do that as well.

Finally, you have to find out what your weak points are in terms of your flight training. You can sense for yourself what these points are, but sometimes it may be ideal for you to approach your instructor and ask him or her which parts need working on. Your instructor would be more than delighted to help you with that. It would even a plus point for you, as instructors will see it as a dedication to your craft and how much you want to improve and earn your private pilot certificate as early as possible.
