I personally wouldn't recommed JAX, FL. It is just something about the vibe there. I felt like all of the instructors think that they are hard and cool because they are multi engine flight instructors. And they always quote TOP GUN lines, which is really not cool. Especially if you come from the Navy like me and know that they really don't do that stuff. Personally I would go to ATL. It is a booming location, they have alot of planes, it is a fun city, and the field they fly out of is tower controlled, and the runways just got resurfaced. The FBO that ATP is located in just got redone and pretty sweet also. You also get alot of good experience dealing with Atlanta Class B. But, you obviously have your own choice. I used to go to the Braves games when I wasn't flying and there is a brewery there called Sweet Water Brewery that does "tours" where you can hang out and have cold beer for $2 a piece. But anywhere you go, you will get good training from ATP.
