Hey Phil,

To become a Commercial Pilot you will first have to complete you PPL (45 hrs) anywhere around £5000-£8000. To get you PPL you have to pass a Class 2 medical which would be included it the price.

After getting you PPL you need to have 150 hrs total time which must include 70 hrs Pilot in command before you can start your Commercial Licence, in the meantime you could build up your hours by doing a night rating, around £1500-£2000. You could build up your hours in the U.K. (expensive) or try various countries like N.Z., USA and South Africa which offer cheaper hourly rates. From passing you PPL (45hrs) to having 150hrs it could cost you anywhere from £5500-£10500 depending on where you hour build. Now that you have enough hours you can go for your CPL, this generally costs about £5000 and an instrument rating costs between £5000-£9000 again depending on where you do it.

P.S. Before you go for your CPL you have to pass a Class 1 Medical which is £400ish

So doing it the Modular way (which I am) will cost anywhere between £22400 and £35000, more likely to be in the higher end, and possibly even more.

This will give you just enough hours along with your licence but obviously not many employers will take you on with this…..so it’s more money on flying, unless you go for you Instructors rating around £6000.

There is also the integrated way which costs between £50000 and £60000 and you generally stay at one school for this.
