Looking to Rent a C-172 in the Orlando area this weekend (Fri, Sat, Sun)

Any Suggestions, Recommendations, Places to avoid, etc?

Long Story short (kinda...)
Our family C-172 is being painted in Central Oklahoma. The goal was to fly it down to Florida (getting some IFR training for my Dad enroute) and leave it in Florida for my sister to fly (whole family has PPL). All this in combination with my family's Disney Trip. Well the tornados last Wednesday didn't hit the plane but the storms did kick up dirt/twiggs/etc into the wet paint - NUTS!

So now I'm looking to get checked out and rent a plane and fly my sister around.

Grew up flying out of Merritt Island and flew numerous hours back and forth visiting my wife to be in Clearwater so I'm pretty familiar with the area.

I realize this is a little off-brand, but I like you guys

Air Orlando is probably your best bet for Orlando Exec KORL. Once you get checked out with them, they have a nice online scheduling program for future use, if needed.

Chad Oliver is the instructor that checked me out in an Arrow they have over there before I bought the Bo. The number is... 877-576-2359

Just an update...Took a ride with Chad this morning and then went flying with my sister in a C172 from Air Orlando. Great time. Thanks for the Pirep.

Then I flew the Baron to Sarasota, took some family for a tour along the beach, then up to St Pete. Monday is back to Orlando for Disney fun.
