Hi Clinton, so how many hours approx to do sport license then was it a further 26 hrs tp cover the RPL? if so how many hours all up?

thanks again, your.input is appreciated. To be.fair i think my club are generally honest and i myself have been well aware of my piloting shortcomings as they happen but i feel im getting close however the gusty conditions where i am has shown my landing to be a bit inconsistent at least with these conditions I am thinking i should be pretty darn good landing when i get some friendlier conditions and i shall do the solo, the exam and the license test. Any way i look at it ..it has been fun and always look forward to flying..the theory TBH..not a big fan but i realise it is important. thanks again to everyone offering advice and tips. cheers

Yes a lot to consider, thanks for your input. So if i have done over 30 hrs in cessna 172, i have just done my medical, my pre solo exams, my GELP and my ASIC are all in place..i assume it may be best to continue my path in a 172? and finish in (hopefully) say, another 10-15 hrs. what do you think? If i did do it this way, when it comes to my nav i was at first thinking i could just have my RPL with a nav module to free me up, then ive been told i should really just bite the Bullet and do my PPL, which is similar but with no weight restrictio or so im told. Do you know if i am able to do my NAV or my PPL in a sport plane to save on hire costs?

Thanks, I figured as much. I have done 35 hrs in a C172 so far and still going, probably not worth swapping over now. I had just noticed early on how the clubs sell the training and was sceptical on how they can quote like 20hr, when i suspect, in general most student pilots with no prior experience would be probably doing many more hrs than 20 odd. Adrian.

Hi, I am doing it now.

Hi Everyone I'm new to this forum. I have a Question for everyone and anyone who will help answer this, How may hours did it take you to finish your RPL and what was the sticking point, or the tricky part for you? Thanks in advance Adrian.
