Let's see. . .80 hours total for $5900 in a Tomahawk. My FBO owner gave me 10 free hours because of CFI changes at my most critical time prepping for my checkride. Five months total training but I took two months off because of work commitments which had me travelling 3 weeks at a pop which slowed my training. Here in the Houston area, we're still flying I believe less expensively than "most" with weather never a significant factor. My private was fun.
