Totals to reach your Private goal at this pace. Estimates use PilotBound's own completion-hours model, examiner-completion data where it exists and FAA minimums where it does not, applied to each school's published rates. They are PilotBound estimates, not the school's quote, and will differ from a school's own figures. How we estimate.

Aircraft rates are published as wet. All2Fly also advertises an approximate "zero to commercial in 9 to 12 months and $55,000" program on its homepage; that figure is a target rather than an itemised package, so this estimate prices the published hourly rates instead. The rate page also lists a registration fee of $250 and a ground-school kit at $390, neither of which is in the hourly estimate. Based at Dekalb-Peachtree (KPDK).
