Thomas Grady, , Pocono Lake, PA. What it will cost to build depends on exactly where the lot is (Lakeview or not) and how your dream house will be designed. As of today, I have access to over 50 lots in Arrowhead that range from $3,500 to $159,900 - quite a range!
A small airplane such as a Cessna 172 can cost up to $30 per hour in fuel alone during flight. If you fly 200 hours in a year, itâll cost $6,000 in fuel alone per year. Whether or not you can justify the cost of a private aircraft depends largely on your sense of financial security and your opinion on quality of life.
I did my private this year in 50 hours. It cost approximately $10,000, but see the budget I put together below which would allow you to do yours cheaper. That includes all books, instructor time at $50/hour, flight time at $135 per hour for a Cessna 172S. You can use a DA-20 at $99 per hour instead which is an excellent plane for instruction, really fun to fly and what the US Airforce uses for their entry level programs in Colorado Springs area.
