+1 on the above.
Pro is going downhill.
The cfi is a stickler for rules and weather minima have been made too restrictive.
Plus there is a high turnover in instructors, even they are not happy there, how will the students be happy.
The vfr section is the worst with people's training getting stretched and school using flimsy reasons not to give flight test recommends.
They stretched many students' ppl beyond 100 hrs and quite a few have left never to come back.
It seems to be all about the money at pro right now rather than producing good pilots.

But to give credit where its due, the ground school and seminars are good and the fleet is well maintained.

I wouldnt recommend them for beginners working on ppl as I see them getting ripped off at pro all the time. But if u r experienced and know what u want out of ur training then they cant cheat you and are a good option.
