do they sell plane tickets to minors under the age of 18? if they do do you have to have your paretns permission or their ID with you? and wud i need an ID to buy the ticket?
and can you buy the plane ticket at the airport, the day your plane leaves? or do you have to buy it ahead of time on the internet?
and do you have to have a passport jsut for going somewhere lets say you live in texas and you want to go to florida wud you need a passport for that?

Do they sell plane tickets to minors? Yes, as long as you have a credit card (if you're booking online). You don't have to have parents' permission to buy the actual ticket online, and you just show your ID (which can be a driver's license) at the airport when you check in for your flight.

You need to buy it ahead of time unless it's a last minute emergency or something. Chances are, if you wait, your flight will be booked. No, you don't need to have a passport if you're staying in the same country, but if you're traveling alone you will most likely need an ID. This can be a driver's license, school student ID, or even birth certificate/social security card.

Since you're 16 you shouldn't have a problem with getting a boarding pass and traveling alone.

EDIT:
You'll have to check with your airline, but many places offer a money order option. I'm not exactly sure how that works, and if you call the airline you may be able to send them a check or something. Here's what I would do. If your parents have a credit card you could use, you could pay them with cash. If they're okay with it. Or, if you can get a friend/relative with a credit or debit card to help you out, that would work too.
