This is an excerpt from a report made to the Aviation Safety Reporting System. The narrative is written by the pilot, rather than FAA or NTSB officials. To maintain anonymity, many details, such as aircraft model or airport, are often scrubbed from the reports.
While on a local instructional flight with a training call sign, ZZZ tower told us to turn base inside of airline traffic on a nine-mile final and we were cleared for touch and go.
Tower controller never let us know spacing became an issue with the 737 on final until we were on the runway and the student was executing the touch-and-go procedure.
Tower told us to immediately execute a wave off or go-around procedure and immediately side step to the right of the runway centerline.
As the instructor I took the controls of the Cessna 172 and immediately got the plane airborne and side stepped to the right of centerline well below the 400 AGL usually required for the pattern at ZZZ and remained visually clear of all obstacles. The 737 landed in close proximity behind us.
In my experience, this has become a concerning trend at ZZZ with local tower controllers trying to fit too many planes in too tight spots between all the corporate, general aviation, high volume of training flights, and airline traffic.
