Flying with STL Flight Training CFII Josh Carroll in the Evektor Harmony

The Aero Experience celebrates Midwest Aviation with our "CFI on the Fly" series to honor the unsung heroes of the aviation industry - the Certified Flight Instructors training the next generation of pilots at flight schools large and small across the region. CFIs are in high demand, and new instructors are gaining flight hours at a rate that guarantees their rapid progression to the corporate, charter or airline crew positions to which many aspire. Rather than generalize about the CFI/CFII/MEI roles, we will start from the individual and find out what makes a great CFI through their particular contribution. In this edition, we feature Josh Carroll, CFII from STL Flight Training based at St. Louis Downtown Airport. He is friendly and likeable, immediately showing his enthusiasm for the next flight opportunity. He also has a get-to-the-point teaching side that projects two or three steps ahead of the student in the training process. Carroll always strives to give his students the most value for their time and money on each flight and ground school session.
