Looking to earn your Private Pilot Licence in Germany? Aviatr lists 52 EASA-approved Approved Training Organisations (ATOs) running PPL(A) courses — the licence that lets you fly single-engine aircraft for leisure and carry passengers. The PPL is the entry point to every pilot career and the foundation for later commercial ratings. Each school below publishes its own fleet, hourly rates and instructor availability, so you can compare real PPL programmes side by side.

Typical cost

A PPL in Europe typically costs €15,000–25,000, with most students budgeting around €20,000. Price depends on aircraft type, how quickly you fly the minimum 45 hours, and local landing fees.

How long it takes

Most students complete the PPL in 6–12 months training part-time at weekends. The EASA minimum is 45 flight hours plus nine theory exams; flying more regularly shortens the elapsed time.
