Rogue,
I just recently got my F/W PPL. I also did my flight training exclusively ( for the most part ) on the weekends. My advice from my experience is to go after it when you have the money so you aren't taking long breaksin between lessons. I got my PPL at 40 hours and there were students who had a lot more hours than what I have now. One of them didn't even solo until 35 hours! You need to ascess your abilities to learn because most of your training on the ground will be your reading the book and talking about it with your instructor. Jeppesen makes an excellent product for flight training although I found the book to me is out of sync. For instance, performance was towards the back while, cross country was towards the front. The problem is that most students ted to learn airplane performance well before they go fly a cross country. Bottom line if you want to do it do it but, once you start investing money in flight training it's not worth it to quit. If your unsure try and intro flight with an instructor. Thats just my two cents!
