The minimum experience requirements are different, but the hours count the same.

What's cheaper?

ah! Makes sense. I thought that's what he meant but I re-read and I just didn't get that feeling so I responded.

price really depends where you go but from talking to other pilot buddies, it's general consensus in my group of friends that 141 ends up being more expensive mostly because if you can't pass a lesson they will stick you on that lesson and won't go forward
