Earning a pilots licence is by no means an easy task but it is certainly achievable given enough time, dedication and financial backing. The minimum requirements for an internationally recognised Private Pilots Licence (PPL) are 45 hours of instruction covering various different skills. In the UK, this can cost anything from £5000 - £7000 depending on the individual course.
