The 141 program is so ridged that between meeting the exact criteria and stage checks the average time is closer to 80 hours. Don't get me wrong, I am not against 141 programs, infact it is the only option with VA money or student loans, I am just saying that if you are on a budget there is nothing wrong with part 61 schools. I feel they can be equally as safe and quality instruction, just a little bit more value for the money.
Fair enough, I'm sure there are schools like that out there. To be fair, not all 141 schools are like that. I wrote the syllabi for the school I worked at, and I intentionally wrote some leeway into the program so that students weren't held up by the syllabus. Other schools I've visited have also had their own ways to prevent students from being unnecessarily held back.

I will agree with you on that one, maybe I was trying to generalize to much.
I love the sound smell of jet fuel in the morning.

I pass by flight school signs every day on 290 near Barker Cypress. Quick search, here's two of them:

Flight Lessons
I recieved this via email today. If you're not a member of Living Social Deals you should sign up. They send emails everyday with great deals. Most of them are not something I'm interested in but every now and then they send something over I am interested in. Groupon is another one that offer daily deals.
