    The 152 carries a wet hourly rate on its fleet card. Everything else is sold as a package: a Multi or MEI course in a Cessna 310R at $9,999, CFI at $4,000, CFII at $1,500. Ground instruction is priced on a sliding hourly scale from $75 down to $67.50, with a $10/hr premium on CFI and multi-engine instruction, but flight instruction has no hourly figure of its own.
