two years back I got my private license at KCAC and I have nothing but great things to say about them. Instructor was great..he moved on now. Owner/staff were all great. Aircraft were in great condition. I don't know about pay for CFI's or anything, but its at a nice airport and looks to have a good staff. It is a bit of a smaller school, had like 7 planes when I was there, and im not really sure one way or the other how busy they are, but I thought it was a great program.
