I don't have 0 but may as well. I have not flown in a year and due to procrastinating in getting my PPL, I have one and a half months to do so. I will then end up with a month to do it in thanks to two wisdom tooth extractions coming up.
Any advice on how to achieve the PPL goal in such a short time? I plan on flying like crazy and have the funds to ensure that there won't be a break.
Is it even possible? Can it be done?
I have my written passed and my medical is still valid. I'm flying where I "work" so I'm right there and know the CFIs well. I interview nine flight schools and two laughed at my goal (understandably).

Why a month?

I have 1.5 months because I took all of the possible courses that don't require a ppl in school. Upon completion of this semester I will be unable to register for classes because the prerequisites include a private cert. I could wait until next spring to do school again but that will entice me to never finish. I was given a date of May 6th to submit my pilot certificate for the 6 credits and to satisfy my prerequisites.
The wisdom teeth extractions take a few weeks. I want to have a safety net in case of dry socket which I have had before. No fun flying like that.
Best case, 1.5months. Worst case, 1 month.
