You good a great deal then. When I took lessons at a flight school for my private I was paying an arm and a leg. I don't remember exactly what they charged per hour but I was paying around $250-$300 a lesson. Take two lessons a week and you're looking at $2,400 a month! Full scale flying is a rich man's hobby.
