A young man I know is interested in an acclerated private pilot cours (18-21 days) and he is located in southern NM. Looking for a school in the Southwest and does anybody have any recommendations?
 
At the risk of throwing a wet blanket on his plans, it's extremely difficult to successfully complete a private course in that amount of time, assuming that everything goes well (no weather, illness, equipment problems). Flying is not about cramming hours into a given number of days; it is about learning to fly. Some people probably can do it. But it's not easy, and there's a lot to learn. It's not like learning to drive a car, believe me. But you know that.

I did my Private in Just under 90 days But that included Lots of down time Pacific NW Weather & flight school selling off all airplanes in a Total of 45 Flights. I could see if one lived and breathed Aviation had the written passed and had good conceptual knowledge being able to do it in 21 days.
