Flt. Training in SLC-75/hr includes CFI

[Econ]

Cost is certainly a major consideration. Another is a CFI's ability to teach me the things I need to know to be a safe pilot. I'm able to get along with most people so I'm not as concerned as others might be with making sure personalities "match." As long as the CFI can help me learn that that I need to know I'll probably work just fine with him. If for some reason it doesn't work out I'll find another CFI.

So you think you are covered by the owners insurance. Guess again. If they bend metal the insurance companies can go after you. Even the owner can go after you since you "taught him/her incorrectly."
So you are actually stealing from your employer.
Does the city or state rquire you to have a business license?
At $30/Hr. and up I averaged over 100hrs. a month. Why so busy. Reputation. Earn a reputation as being very good and you won't have to live with the reputation of being very cheap. People do pay for quality, especially when their life is on the line.
The kid cutting the lawn makes more than you. He does do a great job.

Mickey,

good for freaking you. you are so awesome, I wish I could be JUST like you. can you send me a letter explaining to me how to be so super, so cool? I want to be just like you.

give me a break. I freelance, ON THE side, for friends. they buy their OWN insurance, and sign lots of paperwork with the owner of the plane.

boy I'm glad I don't live in your neurotic little world.

How can you make any money at $15 per hour? I make more then that working for a school. I also was making 35/hr freelance, and that was back when I had only about 100 hrs dual. I think you are seriously undercharging. Don't forget the extra tax you have to pay being self-employed.

Mickey has some good points about the insurance.

I'm sorry! I didn't mean to offend you. I thought you were trying to be a professional pilot. I didn't realize you were just doing this for fun and a few bucks.

Good luck in whatever your career is.
