I’m a college student who lives in Houston, going on second year in community college and I have strong interest in learning how to fly an airplane. Where can I get lessons in Houston and how much does it cost?

Check your local airport for flight schools. Average cost for a ppl is around $9k but it will differ from school to school.
Good Luck

Try Sugarland (KSGR). The airport is in southwest Houston – it’s in a great location because it is far from the busy traffic of Bush and Hobby. Anson Air has some pretty nice and well kept aircraft. When I visited them (a year ago) the prices were “dry” meaning that you have to pay for the airplane by the hour PLUS fuel used. Talk to Joe, he will give you some good info.
Price of obtaining your PPL depends on how often you fly. I have known people that got their license in less than 3 months… they spent about $6,500. Overall, expect to pay between $6,500 and $10,000 – it also depends on the airplane you fly. The majority of schools allow you to get your PPL, at a minimum, in 40 hours. However, the national average is about 72 hours.
Good luck!
