What is the total cost for flight training in the USA,?
I'm 18 years old and I want to become a commercial pilot for an airline with all license PPL, CPL, MPL, ATPL etc how much would it cost in total in US dollars on average?
Over $100k.
$50,000 to $100,000 to be a fresh minted flight instructor with 200 to 300 hours. That is just enough to have your commercial pilot airman certificate, instrument rating and multi engine rating. You're 18 years old? Go to college, get a degree. Flight schools are there to get your money, not get you a job with an airline.
The cost typically falls between $65,000 and $85,000 to obtain a CPL with multi-engine and instrument ratings. After that, it would require a flying job in small aircraft to accrue the 1,500 hours flight time necessary to qualify for the ATPL and an airline job. Most people obtain a flight instructor certificate in order to build that extra flight time. The FAA does authorize an ATPL with restricted privileges to applicants with only 1,000 hours and who have graduated from an approved CTP flight program which includes a college degree in aviation. Such programs take 3-4 years to complete and typically cost $200,000+, and restricted ATPL holders may only fly as a copilot. Only regional airlines will hire such people however, so it isn't really worth the financial investment required. It's best to obtain a CPL and build flight time toward an ATPL the traditional way.
About eighty grand. A wee bit less if you can get some PPL training at Cochise College and a Pelll grant. Or get in military and get flight training (small chance unless major war.). Commercial will still have to be done outside, though.
WELL OVER $100,000,00.
$50,000.00 is a bad joke
And as many times as you ask it will still be the same.
Your Jamaican mother is right you are extremely ungrateful.

- Can I pass through Airport Security with Cooked lunch in my Carry-on/Personal during travels to the USA? I plan on making a trip to the USA for the summer, However, one of my flights has a long stop where I will be waiting for more than 10 hours until the next plane departs. As you can imagine that's a lot of waiting, and I don't want to buy the expensive food available at the airport. So is it okay to prepare a cooked meal and bring along with me? Example: Baked Chicken and Rice with steamed vegetables.
