$2000 PPL Checkride?
All in the title essentially. I have had an absolute nightmare of an experience with this school. I’ve had moments where I feel like giving up on even pursuing aviation but I haven’t completely thrown in the towel yet. However, I’m finally eligible for my PPL checkride after months of swooning from the school. They are telling me it’s a $2,000 fee for the checkride — same week appointment. Their website advertises a $1,500 checkride (which I’ve also read is overpriced). I’m located in South Florida. Do I pay the $2,000? Is there other ways to go? Please help me out. Thank you all.
EDIT: Airplane rental IS included in the $2,000. I’m sorry for not pointing that out originally.
