"I had been searching for a CFI to complete Spin Training and earn my Spin Endorsement for my upcoming CFI training. After reaching out to a couple CFI’s with no luck I had come across Josiah from a CFI Directory. Seeing he offered Spin Training in an Aeronca Champ I had also inquired him about finishing up earning my tailwheel endorsement which was something I had been meaning to complete. Josiah got back to me within a few hours and was able to put together a package of flights flying multiple lessons a day over the span of 3 days due to the time crunch I was on, needing to complete this before going out of town for a bit. The lessons were well structured and laid out specific objectives which needed mastery to get signed off. Josiah provided me with great instruction both on the ground with preflight lessons and debriefs, and also in the air while dealing with learning the differences in landing tricycle gear vs. conventional landing gear aircraft. One of our last flights we completed spin training, some of the most fun I’ve had in an airplane. We went beyond just demonstrating intentions spins and Josiah allowed me to role play as the instructor with multiple instances where unintentional spins could occur with a student which was a great learning experience. Overall, I found the entire experience as a positive, improving my stick and rudder skills flying in the Champ. Josiah was a knowledgeable, professional instructor who was incredibly easy to get along with and schedule with. I would recommend pilots at any level to train with Josiah if they are serious about training to mastery beyond minimum standards."
