the average rate is about 80-100 dollars for a cessna 172 depending on the age. most training aircraft are in that range, most places give you a deal on the aircraft when you are training with them.

no problem john

It is interesting to see those that pursue it further and those that walk away after few flights, I am only limited by the dollars I have and every flight is unique.

Just got back from flying a 172 from Ft Collins via Goodland to Manhattan. Goodland is always a good airfield to land at. Ft Collins Downtown may have the most eccentric lineman you may ever meet. And he may be filthy rich.

Could my 28 hrs. that I have in be applied to a sport license, even though they were all logged before the sport licenses came out? It's been quite a few years, I'm sure I would have to do some backtracking. -TD
