Plans to build the worldâs first âtidal lagoonâ in Swansea Bay have suffered a setback after influential consumer charity Citizens Advice said the project was âappalling value for moneyâ and should not receive subsidies.
Getting hours in an ultralight wont train you for any emergency situations, like stalls and spins. A private pilots license costs $100 an hour in our cheapest aircraft. that means if you just want it for an ultraight, it would be $3500 and can be completed in 8 weeks. thats how fast I did it flying just 1 hour a day on weekdays only.
That said, we expect the price of the aircraft to be between $100,000 and $200,000 depending upon configuration and precise FAA certification process applied. If that sounds like a high price you might keep in mind that it's about what it costs to buy a new small airplane or mid-sized (35 foot) sailboat these days. Further, if you go out and price a helium airship, you'll find that the cheapest one made costs over $2 million. If you want a real top-notch ship, the Zeppelin NT -- the only other airship available with in-flight control that comes close to ours, you're looking at a price tag over $12 million.
