As Texas Tech says, just start with a private pilot course through an FBO near where you live. If you like flying you can find out what to do next from the CFI that trains you. FBOs can do everything an accelerated pilot mill can do, and are a lot cheaper. To find one go to the local airport and ask the locals to recommend one. You will ge a lot of answers, but one may emerge as being better than the others. Watch out for pricey FBOs that exist for rich clientele, there are a few out there doing business and you don't need them. Flight training is reasonably priced if you make an effort to keep it down. Another thing you could do is ask the local FAA designated examiner that does all the local certificate approvals where to go. Since they evaluate local pilots they know the best FBO schools.
