CFI Spin Requirements

So technically .. if one found a complicit CFI, one could be a
Certified Flight Instructor with absolutely no real experience
actually entering or recovering from a spin.

I think that interpreting the requirements as not requiring spin
training would be a poor defense against a charge of falsifying a
logbook entry.


This squares with some (scary) things I've heard regarding "90 day
wonder" CFI/IIs who have never been in IMC, never fully stalled, and
never used an E-6B (electronic or manual).

I have never met such a "90 day wonder," but if you say they are out there...

Never having been in IMC I can partly understand. After all, some
places never get IMC.

Perhaps you could name a school that is actually not doing spins,
stalls, or teaching flight planning.
