Nah, sorry. Only my experience with the actual airport after flying in there several times.

I had a good experience with SkyBlue Flight Academy when I got checked out for a rental. They are up in Stuart so that's about 45 minutes away but they were cool to work with.

Stuart? There’s Treasure Coast Flight Training (big school, ~20 instructors), I never heard of Skyblue, there’s Blue Sky down in North Perry, are you sure you’re not confusing the two?

Check out Platinum Aviation at F45. I got checked out in one of their planes years ago.

This is the place. https://skyblueja.com/

I don't know how long they have been around because I was just visiting family. They were falling all over me to make me happy and were so friendly even though I just wanted a checkout and a couple hour rental. It is a small operation but they are also a Part 135 charter.

Yeah, they’ve always had a Cirrus factory maintenance shop there, must have added rental and flight training.
Good to know.
