I'm with Akro - I'd say if you can find the right instructor definitely go for it.
The outfit is friendly and professional but they have sometimes struggled for a wealth of M/E instructors in the past - talk to the CFI.
Also the Travelair is a great initial trainer, scarcely a bad bone in their body - allows you to focus on the important stuff. They're a joy to fly and a much better sticker (Travelair/Baron) to have than Dutchy or Seminole endorsements. The latter endorsements you'll scarcely need to use after getting signed off.
Have fun!
PS: I'm not sure if Sandy's still doing some casual instructing out there but grab him if he is! Lovely guy, excellent instructor.
