Check out Tiffin Aviation in Nogales Arizona, its about three hours south of phoenix and one hour south of Tucson. Im the assistant cheif there, Ive gotten students through their private, instrument, commercial single, and commercial multi engine in less than 6 months. The prices for rental and instruction are cheaper than most schools, its a great location for flying. Its not the place to go if you want to party in a big city though, its on the border of mexico.
Let me know if your interested, Id be happy to answer any questions.
