|Streching the Dollar – 10 Tips for Saving Money |

|By Sarah Deener - AOPA’s Flight Training Magazine |

| |

|Train often - Don’t give your newfound skills a chance to get rusty between lessons. Book frequent flights to finish training in fewer total |

|hours |

|Come prepared - Many skills are best learned in the cockpit. But many more concepts—aerodynamics, aircraft systems, and more—can be learned |

|in the calmer environment of ground study. |

|Hit the sim - Practice procedures and emergencies in a realistic environment, without the full cost of an aircraft, by using flight |

|simulators or aviation training devices. |

|Fly old, small, and simple - If your goal is saving money, be prepared to fly something much older than the typical car. Aircraft must go |

|through frequent inspections and engines are overhauled periodically, so a well-maintained aircraft can be decades old and still fly like new|

|Go sport pilot - Speaking of smaller aircraft, the lower operation costs of some Light Sport aircraft and the lower hour requirements of the |

|sport pilot certificate make this an option for some pilots looking to save money. |

|Fly gliders - No engine, no fuel cost. Just make sure you have a go-to friend who can pick you up if (when) you land off-airport. |

|Bum rides - Flying with another pilot can help you absorb the language of radio communications, the nuances of avionics, and real-world |

|flying considerations you may not learn about in training. |

|Get creative - Know anyone who will let you wash airplanes, mow grass, or clean floors for flight time? You’ll never know if you don’t ask. |

|Apply for scholarships - It’s a lot easier to pay for training when someone else is pitching in. |

|Join the hanger talk - Pilots love to talk about flying. Swapping stories by the airplane is an opportunity to share a common passion with |

|fellow pilots, but it also offers an opportunity to share valuable lessons from flights that didn’t go as planned. |
