The Navy guys might object, it's called Pensacola Naval Air Station, every Navy pilot gets his flight training there. I use to be an air traffic controller at Pensacola for six years.
I-10 runs from Los Angeles to Jacksonville and goes right through Pensacola. Tell him to get on I-10 eastbound toward Tallahassee and after a couple hundred miles he'll go through Tallahasse and then be on the lookout for I-75, exit southbound on I-75 and go through Gainesville, Ocala and get off at Wildwood Route 44 east. From there he goes 3 miles and turns north on Hwy 301 and from there he can turn east at either 466A or go another five miles and turn right at 466 at Oxford. Depends on if you live in the southern portion of TV or the northern part.
