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.

    Both rates are stated on the home page under one heading, and both aircraft are published WET. Instruction is the same $75/hr for flight and ground. The Cessna 152 is an Aerobat, so it is certificated for aerobatics, but it is still a two-seater and not the right aircraft for the Commercial.

    Checked September 5, 2026·Source

    East Coast Aero Club publishes NO rental rate: every aircraft on both its fleet pages reads "Call for current rate". The aircraft figure here is derived from the school's own Private Pilot cost table, whose solo, dual, ground and checkride lines all agree and whose implied instruction rate matches the $85/hr it publishes directly. Rates are wet with instruction charged separately. A senior instructor tier is $95/hr. The cost table also carries a cheaper column for a Warrior II and a C172N at an implied $225/hr, and neither aircraft appears on the current fleet pages, so it is not modeled. Ask for the current rate before budgeting.

    A one-instructor operation teaching transition, recurrent and add-on ratings in a student's own Bonanza or Baron. Dual is $90/hr. The single-pilot programme is quoted whole at $11,150 to $12,150, which includes 25 hours of airplane rental DRY at $355/hr plus a fuel estimate and insurance. The two-pilot programme quotes the same aircraft at $350/hr, so the dry figure moves between programmes and is not carried as a trainer rate.

What is the cheapest flight school in Nashua?

The lowest hourly rate is not automatically the lowest total: instructor rates, fuel basis, and the hours you actually fly decide that, which is what the per-school estimates on this page hold constant.
How current are these Nashua flight school rates?
Every rate here is the school's own published figure, linked to its source and dated; the newest check in Nashua is September 13, 2026, and each card and school page shows the exact date its rates were read. The directory is re-checked on a monthly cycle, and 3 more schools in Nashua are listed without an estimate because they do not publish a full rate card. A school can correct or remove its listing anytime.
Which Nashua airports have flight schools?
One field carries the listed schools: Nashua Airport / Boire Field (ASH) with 5. A school that does not state its field on the pages we read is counted in Nashua without one.

Estimates use the same method as every New Hampshire school page: PilotBound's own completion-hours model times each school's published rates, plus the one-time fees most quotes leave out. They are ours, not the schools' quotes, and we are not affiliated with the schools. How these estimates work·Disclaimer & removal policy
