Title 10 flight schools are those burning JP-8 on the taxpayer’s dime, right? (ie, military flight training)
Career & independent instructors (not flight school employees) is exactly who I’d be looking to work with in going 61.

One known exception: DAL likes aviation universities. If you can't do a title 10 school, and have money to burn, that would be the next best choice for DAL. But a name-brand university, not a puppy-mill.
Never ever heard of any regional actually having a preference.
141 and 61 instructors have always been pretty much the same young, low-time, time-builders. Occasionaly (in either system) you'll find a more experienced CFI. Most of the career CFI's are free-lancers, not working for a school. Schools make money by paying low wages, which works for time-builders but not for career people.
Easy, they don't prefer 141.
