PPL Training
I'm an active CFI in Michigan and I'm sure there is hundreds of places in the USA you could go to and get the local FBO pilot training. We just completed PPL for a WMU zero time guy from Turkey who did an outstanding job even with the language issue. We are instructing other students that the big schools send us because they can't handle the volume of flying and we(local FBO) can do the training in most cases faster(less flight time) and at an hourly rate(plane and instructor) that is substantially less money. Yes there is some lead time with the TSA requirements but you will have that at any training site. When you start looking for employment flying an Airbus they won't care where you received your PPL, IFR and other ratings.
