No bash intended. You're right, the way I worded it you could think I was slamming ATP.
Instead of "legit CFI", what I should have said was shop around and find a good CFI, one that has a gift for teaching and one that takes his/her job seriously. One that will still be there in a month so you don't need to rush your ratings or start over with a new CFI every couple flights.
Sorry to ruffle any feathers. I have no axe to grind with ATP, its employees, or students.
