Default Private Flight Lessons

Has anyone on here done them? I have researched the major ones in the are a bit but was wondering if there is any first hand experience. I lived in South Florida for 18 months and a guy I worked with lived in an Aero community who just so happened to be a CFI. Being friends with him I was/am halfway to my recreational license and would love to finish it so I can buy a Cessna out of college. Anyone with some knowledge?

Yea, Curtis Eads school opererates out of there. His lesson price is high but aircraft rental is higher than I am used to seeing. 105/hour for a 152 is a bit much. They were ~70/hour in Florida, I know they are too different markets and rec flying is probably bigger down there since South Florida has Orlando commuters in the air. I just didn't expect to see that much of a difference

Check out Horizon Flight school at the Chesapeake Regional Airport. They are a certified Cessna Pilot training facility.
