Pay for the flight you just flew.
Aerotyne does not offer in-house financing or a lending partner. Students pay as they fly: $125 per hour for the aircraft (dry) and $35 per hour for instruction, one lesson at a time, with no upfront package and no hidden fees.
On final approach One way to pay, and it's the simple one.
There is no lender, no application and no package to sign. You pay for the session you just flew, and that is the whole arrangement.
Pay as you fly
You pay for each lesson as you fly it — nothing up front, and nothing locked in.
- Aircraft $125/hr (dry), instruction $35/hr
- Fly at your own pace, or accelerate when your budget allows
Flat-rate checkride prep
The optional FAA Oral Exam Prep Package replaces hourly ground rates with one flat fee.
- $250 per certificate
- Unlimited one-on-one oral prep
Estimated program totals depend on how often you fly and your own pace; they are estimates, not quotes.
You don't carry all the fuel at once.
A long trip is flown in legs, with a stop at the end of each one. Paying for a rating works the same way.
The cheapest dollar is the one you don't spend.
Nothing here is borrowed, so nothing hides the total. These four levers are the ones that actually move it.
- 1
Frequency
How often you fly is the #1 cost driver. Consistent lessons shorten the path — long gaps mean re-learning and more hours.
- 2
Preparation
Showing up ready — ground study done, procedures chair-flown — makes every paid hour count.
- 3
Aptitude & goals
Every student learns at their own pace, and your destination (a certificate, a rating, a career) shapes the plan.

Medical & materials
Plan for a third-class medical before your first solo, plus books, a headset, and FAA exam fees.
