Show me a 141 syllabus that has you doing spins in lesson 5....
Don’t bother looking, there isn’t one.
Pardon my language but your instructor is a flaming idiot for doing spins with you in lesson 5.
Serves no purpose but to chase a student away.
Was the airplane within the “Utility” weight and balance envelope?
I’ll bet you that it wasn’t.
Was everything secured in the luggage compartment?
I’ll bet you that it wasn’t.
Did he designate an emergency landing site in case of engine stoppage?
I’ll bet you that he didn’t.
Did you carry parachutes?
Required for aerobatic flight unless it’s spin training for your CFI rating.

Now I’m pretty sure he got bored and was looking to show you something fun.
He shouldn’t have.
Period.
An FAA Inspector would have nailed him to the wall.
Top of my head I have six violations.
