I try to get my private students to go part 91 because it gives so much more flexability, and can take less time and end up costing less.
I think the main reason he wants to do 141 is because the VA will pay for it. I got my ratings through the VA and I had to use a 141 school. But I agree that becomming a CFI is the best way to go . You learn a lot about flying hat way.
