Flight Club
Flight clubs are actually the training institution in the world producing most private pilots. This is because most students training for a private pilot certificate (PPL) do it for leisure flying. Also flight clubs can be found in most cities with an airport throughout the world. Not all of them offer training, but they all lease out airplanes for members to fly.
In the United States, Europe and Australia you can even find some flight clubs offering training up to instrument rating and commercial pilot certificate (CPL).
The huge benefit of flight clubs is they are usually non-profit, meaning the courses and rent fees are less expensive. As the people there are more interested in bringing you onboard as a member rather then making money on you the atmosphere becomes different. If leisure flying is what you are seeking then going to your nearest flight club is a smart choice.
If you are new to flying and not sure if this is the way to go, taking an intro flight or a few test lessons with the local flight club may be smart. They count towards your training needed for the PPL and prevent you from investing a lot of money on something you may turn out not to be that interested in.
Do you have time then doing the private pilot license (PPL) in a flight club before moving on to a flight school is something you should consider. Many students do the PPL at home while in school or working before they move to a larger flight school for advanced training.
