On His Wings Flight Academy published aircraft rates
AircraftPublished rateNotes
Piper Warrior$94/hrFuel basis not stated.

Training is sold as accelerated course packages with a satisfaction refund in the first two days. The only hourly figure is the Warrior at $94, quoted for time used beyond a package. The instructor is not priced separately.

Why there is no total

An estimate needs an instructor rate.

A training total is hours multiplied by rates. With instruction unpriced there is nothing to multiply, and we will not fill the gap with a plausible number: every figure on this site carries a link that shows it today.

    Instruction is the second biggest line on a training bill, after the airplane.

Paying for it

Two ways to pay for it.

Win what you can first, then borrow only what is left. Neither figure assumes anything about you: one is what our scholarship directory holds, the other is what the lenders publish.

What to ask

What to ask when you call

The marked ones are what On His Wings's site never answers. The rest are what turns an hourly rate into a real bill.

320-808-8505

  1. What do you charge per hour for flight instruction, and is ground instruction billed at the same rate?Missing from their site

    This is the number that is missing from the site. Ground is often billed separately and at a different rate.

  2. Does the instructor rate change for the Instrument, Commercial, or CFI, or is it flat across everything?Missing from their site

    Plenty of schools charge more for advanced instruction. A flat rate quoted for the Private can climb later.

  3. Do the published aircraft rates include fuel, or is fuel billed separately?

    The site does not say, and it is the difference between two rates that look identical and are not.

  4. What does the instructor cost per hour outside a package?Missing from their site

    The Warrior has an hourly rate and the instruction inside the packages is never priced by the hour.

  5. Do you offer block rates or prepay discounts, and what is the refund policy if I stop partway?

    Block discounts are common and rarely published. The refund terms matter more than the discount.

  6. What do you charge for the written test, the checkride, and the examiner's fee?

    The DPE fee alone runs $800 to $1,200 in most of the country and is almost never in a quoted hourly rate.

  7. How many trainers and how many full-time instructors do you have right now?

    Availability decides your pace, and pace decides your total more than the hourly rate does.

It does not publish a rate either, so that one is a phone call too. AXN is the identifier to give when you ask.
