Steve Johnson
Gold Seal CFI, CFII, MEI, AGI, IGI,
Backcountry Instructor, Tailwheel Instructor
Steve’s beginnings in aviation were decidedly unusual. Fear of flying on commercial airliners led him to confront the fear and start taking flying lessons in 1997. He had a rocky start, including an accident as a low-time pilot, but this only fueled his determination to learn all he could about flying. He is now a 4500+ hour pilot, a Gold Seal flight instructor, and a dedicated advocate of aviation and aviation safety. Steve also runs SuperCub.Org, a website for Super Cub and backcountry aviation enthusiasts which continues to grow. Steve strongly believes that through proper introduction and education, we can help others understand why backcountry aviation is viable, valuable, safe – and a whole lot of fun.
