Default Seeking Accelerated part 141 in Florida

I want to begin my part 141 accelerated (concentrated) PPL somewhere in Central to South Florida (zero time). I’m in the Jupiter florida area. My goal is CFI/II/MEI. Internet sweep hasn’t been very helpful. I visited a couple of schools but with inconclusive results. Any recommendations/ suggestions?
Thanks!

Why “accelerated” 141?
You know you can be just as fast 61 right?
You need to find a school that will work with you and has an enthusiastic CFI available.

I agree with this. If anything, Part 61 is faster. If you’re part 141, and your next flight needs to be a vfr XC, but the ceilings are too low, you’re going to have to cancel the flight and go home. But if you’re part 61, you could still find something to, like do pattern work and work on those soft and short field landings that you were struggling with, or go do some ground ref.

I’m going to piggy back on this thread. Anyone have a recommendation for a place in the southeast US preferably Florida that specialize in IFR finish up training. I’m aware of most of the advertised companies like PIC, etc but if a hidden gem exists I’d be interested in passing the word along to a buddy that’s looking.

My recommendation would be to stay away from the place in Sanford. You will be accommodated after they cater to their students from China. The whole process becomes unnecessarily long and drawn out.

Find a place that does NOT have training contracts with foreign airlines.

FL Keys Flight Academy if you want to finish up your IFR and enjoy the Keys.
