  Subj: Re: First Air Cadet finishes PPL!  
 From: rgb@blah.com 
  
 Since then prices changed a bit ;-) 
  
 I think number of hours is a bit irrevelent, we should also consider 
 what have been teach, and how many times u practice it. 
 I got my PPL with a big 69 hours, but when I compare with people who 
 finish with 50 hours, I have pratice alot more of some specific things, 
 ex. we allways had alot of xwind where I learn,  alot of different kind 
 of stalls ... etc ...
