JoseCuervo, I actually did find a guaranteed ppl price at one place out of Caldwell Idaho I believe. Think it was around 8k. My grandpa who I flew with growing up actually told me before he passed away it was cheaper to buy a Taylorcraft. Something to look into, but I might have to see how...

Thanks for all the info. I was just curious if it was around the right price range. Sounds like it is and probably budget more.

My local airport charges $6,930 total cost estimate for PPL training in a Cessna 172 Skyhawk. I figured that was about the going rate, but then I had a friend say he's getting his PPL and his airport is $4,760 in a Cessna 150. It seems like a significant difference I was wondering if that was...
