I do not like small, piston-powered aircraft. If I fly, I want to do it right. 

The pilot license alone costs over 12k EUR (incl. training, etc.) in Germany. This is for a simple private pilot license for a small piston-powered aircraft. The jet license adds substantial cost...

One hour in the air is around 150 EUR as far as I heard...without fuel. Not exactly cheap but acceptable.

In Canada, it is my understanding that it is much cheaper, around 100 EUR or so. Also maintenance is cheaper, this is why that family friend immigrated (I know, crazy).
