Good points by both, many thanks.
I figured, and budgeted to be around the 55 hour mark. That's $13,750 based @ $250 p/h. If it's 80 hrs, that's $20k. From reading various websites the cost for a PPL was around the $8k to $13k mark.
I think what is frustrating me is the fact that I'm not getting told the full story, like today for example. I specifically came to San Jose to finish up. If I needed another 50 to 80 hours, there is no way I could get that done in 11 days. Had I known this, I wouldn't have bothered coming down.
I'm thinking at this point of exploring some schools in Florida that can offer a 40 hr course at a set price. That would then allow me to go full time, and would be done at around the 70 hr mark.
