From Houston - $498 taxes included From Atlanta - $439 taxes included Fares vary depending on time of the year and length of stay. Try www.kayak.com

It will vary at what time you are booking the ticket - From Houston - $370 total fare with tax From Atlanta - $286 total fare with tax I got these fares from cheapoair.com - I also checked various other websites - but this was the cheapest price available - you can get very slight variation depending upon the dates you choose - so its always better to book in advance... so you can see if this can suit your pocket ... all the best pal

Go to your nearest airport or call the Airport manager, Ask him/her if there are any FBO's or instructors on the field that can teach you how to fly.
2 :
Small fields are what your looking for... Hook's, West Houston, Hoston Southwest, Pearland Regional, LaPorte, Baytown, Sugarland Regional, Weiser, Lone Star, CLeveland, even one at Hobby.
3 :
If you go to www.beapilot.com that website will help you locate a flight school around you as well as give you a lot of information on how to go about becoming a pilot.

Where could i get the cheapest rates for flight lessons in the Houston Texas area
Where could i get the cheapest rates for flight lessons in the Houston Texas area?
I want to get my private pilot license and have already completed ground school as part of an aviation camp and just need flight time and the FAA test to get it. Money is super tight and I need the cheapest place to log flight time in the houston area. Preferably closer to the NW portion of houston, but hey, beggars can't be choosers.

Sounds like you need more than "flight time". You need instruction, etc. Having your ground work under your belt (I assume you've already taken the written exam) will help but understand that there is a longer road ahead of you than behind you at this point. While the FAA allows you to take your checkride with as man as 35 or 40 hours, 60 hours is more common and 100 hours is not unusual. Rather than focus just on price, you should ask around and see what recommendations you want. Just because you find an instructor willing to fly for $20/hr doesn't mean its going to be cheaper in the longe run.

The chances of finding someone on here that has personal experience with a flight school in your area are slim, so it is going to be up to you to shop around. Make sure to visit multiple schools before choosing one. You can find flight school listings on the following sites: http://www.flightschoollist.com/texas.html http://flighttraining.aopa.org/learntofly/school/flight_schools/ http://www.bestaviation.net/flight_school/texas.asp The hourly rate of the school really isn't the most important factor in determining your overall cost. It's not like you will find one school that is half the price of all the others. The key to reducing cost is consistent training so that you have the best chance of finishing close to the minimum time. You need to plan ahead so that you can complete your training without starting and stopping along the way. When choosing a school you want to make sure that they have sufficient aircraft and instructor availability to meet your needs, and you should make sure that your own schedule and finances will allow you to fly at the very least 1-2 times per week. This is the way to keep costs low. If you take 20 or 30 extra hours to finish because you only flew once every two weeks, it won't matter that the school's rate was $20/hour cheaper than the next school. It is also important that you get a good instructor with the dedication and patience to train you properly, not someone who is just going through the motions to build hours or make a buck. Make sure that you feel comfortable with your instructor's teaching style so you will get the most out of each lesson. Also be aware that you will likely need some additional ground instruction in preparation for the oral exam on your practical test. Good luck and have fun!

Unless I misunderstood your question - you cant find any flight school that will just put you up in a plane, solo. Its just not done. There has to be a flight instructor with you at all times until a certain phase of the training program when the instructor is assured you know exactly what you are doing. So - all you really need to do is crack open the phone book or search the internet for flight training schools near you and ask questions. There is nothing like getting the word from the horses mouth. Any flight school or independent person just shunting a person up in the sky with no training would lose their license in a heartbeat and could even face heavy jail time especially when it comes to a minor.
