How long it takes to become a pilot depends on a couple of factors. One being the type of pilot you wish to be, and the other being the amount of time you put into it. One who wishes to fly their own plane, can finishing training in around eight months. If they put in a lot of flight time. Those who wish to become a pilot as a career should expect to spend four or more years training.
To receive a Private Pilot license in the U.S., the FAA requires student pilots to have a minimum of 40 hours of flight time, and complete an FAA ground school test. However, this is the minimum and most people take longer, normally between 50 - 60 flight hours if you fly frequently. This can take anywhere from 3 months to years depending on how often you fly. Flying 2 to 3 times a week is necessary if you want to complete it quickly.
To obtain an FAA Airline Transport Pilot certificate (commercial airline pilot) takes a minimum of 1500 flight hours. This will take a couple of years to gain this many flight hours and to go through a pilot program, but all depends on how frequently you are able to fly. You will also need a bachelor's degree to be competitive to get a job for a major airline in the U.S.

In the United States you have to be 17 to receive your private pilot certificate. You have to be 16 to solo as a student pilot. You can, however, fly a plane at any age as long as you have a certified flight instructor in the plane with you. I have known 9 and 10 year-olds who were taking lessons. However, they had to wait until age 16 to solo and 17 to take private check ride.
