Anybody have recommendations for a good CFI in the area?
I've looked at several local schools, was not impressed by most of them, found an instructor, but am now being told that while my intellectual understanding is COM level, that I probably won't solo until well after 20 hours (we've had 2 flights, 1 illness cancel, one CFI cancel, and I was trying to schedule 2-3x/week or more), and that the instructor won't sit down to compare schedules so that I can schedule regular flights with her more than 1 week in advance.
I'm primarily looking for someone who will take this seriously, be supportive, & want to get me out in a reasonable timeframe (calendar & productive lessons).
I have some flex in my schedule, so can work around odd hours.
Thanks!
