This varies tremendously....

I've seen students solo after 3 flights and one of those that was actually ready at the end of the first and we just didn't believe it.

We've got a club membet that I don't think will ever solo... he doesn't want to fly without the buddy cord. He was probably ready to solo 3 years ago and has been told he should... But this is the way he enlouys flying.

Average is close to 3 months of going to the field one day every week and getting in 2 to 4 flights each trip.

I soloed after about 10 flights... I didn't bring a plane home that didn't need some repair (not always major.... often the typical ripped off nosewheel.) for over 14 years.
