New Team Member

Aviation welcomes Loren Jones to our training staff. Loren brings more than three decades of airplane piloting and flight instructing experience. He will be focused on both primary and instrument training in our fixed wing aircraft, including recurrent instrument training.

Loren is a big fan of the latest digital cockpit wizardry, so if you need advice or training on iPad-based flight planning products, give Loren a call!

Stephanie Burdorf

If you have been around Hummingbird Aviation lately, you have likely run into Stephanie Burdorf. Stephanie is the most recent Helicopter CFI at Hummingbird but she is no stranger to us here. She began her helicopter flight training at Hummingbird as a high school junior. She then continued her flight training at the University of North Dakota and earned her Bachelor of Science of Aeronautics focusing on Helicopter Commercial Aviation. Last summer Stephanie helped us with some commercial helicopter flights. She is now a full time helicopter flight instructor. We are excited to have her flying for us.

Josiah Ellis

Josiah Ellis recently began flight instructing for Hummingbird Aviation. I have personally been flying and teaching beside Josiah for a few years. He is an experienced fixed wing CFI and also an airframe and power plant aircraft mechanic. He is a huge asset to have around with his diverse background. Welcome to the team Josiah.
