Where?
Go to Florida. Orient yourself in any direction and spit. You will hit one of these schools. Guaranteed.
To the original poster, my personal solution to the problem when I had it was to leave Florida. I found that while there are bad apples in every bunch, Florida seems to be the low spot toward which bad apples seem to roll. This also applies to charter companies as well as flight schools.
Remember it is your butt and certificate on the line. They threaten you with your job, you need the money and hours, you know they are unworthy airplanes, around and around you go. They know you are expendable and there are 1000 people waiting to fill your slot if you leave. Bottom line is you have to look out for what's best for you, because your employer never will.
I know times are tough and moving isn't an option for most people. But in the case of Florida...you are just in a hole down there for the most part. If you don't mind me asking, what part or Florida are you in?
