Finishing in 44 hours is rare. Most people require around 65 hours… so you’re only approximately 2/3 of the way there when you exhaust the prepurchases flight time
This is why I think the independent Cfi might be cheaper and maybe better for me in the long run, just so much to think about. The block package training would be in a Grumman AA5 at 180 an hour and 60 with a CFI as compared to 120 for a cesna 150 and 45 the cfi time. Just in that alone I’d save almost 4k if I need an instructor for every single hour flown past the 44. Just a lot to process for someone who doesn’t really know anyone else in the aviation industry to ask besides you guys.
