On episode 30, Micah and I host another Windows and Aisles episode due to my lack of flying over the holiday season. As there wasn't time for listeners to send in any feedback between our recordings, we didn't have any questions to answer. Also, we didn't give enough time for the Listener Lu wants to know segment either. Sorry about that! However, this did gave us time to dive right into the interview with Chris Chaput, President of DG Fuels. It was a great discussion on Sustainable Aviation Fuel and how they are going to produce this biofuel out of renewable materials and stranded energy. (If you listened to this interview on the Airplane Geeks Podcast, you can skip this interview as it is the same recording.) Thanks once again to all of our listeners and especially our international listeners. Please write in and let us know how you found the show and why you listen. We love hearing from you!!! Opening music is provided by the Madalitso Youth Choir as they sing their Welcome Song, recorded at the lobby of The Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia. We hope you enjoy the show!
In episode 14, Micah and I comment on listener feedback from listeners Lu and Vin. We talk about our tips and tricks for flight preparation, medical concerns, and staying healthy in flight. Micah also tells the story about how we first met ... it was through the Airplane Geeks Podcast. Then I get to turn the tables and interview Micah. As I'm not traveling over the summer, I thought it would be a good idea for our listeners to get to better know Micah. During our conversations, he talks about his family and especially his mom, Harriott. (I so wish I had the opportunity to meet this incredible lady!) Micah tells stories about his flying adventures with his mom and I get to surprise him with some rapid fire questions. Thanks once again to all of our listeners and especially our international listeners. Please write in and let us know how you found the show and why you listen. We love hearing from you!!!

What's Narrative? No, honestly what is it. And why the heck are we talking about it on an aviation podcast?! Well, because I'm repurposing content from another thing I do. No, I'm kidding… Sort of. Narrative affects everything we hear. It's that thing news outlets have that affects how they're going to spin a story. And if you ask me, it's a bummer that has to be a thing at all. Today's a really cool episode, because we're stepping a little outside the usual mold (as if there was one here), and pulling back the curtain a little bit. And for those in the business of making content, it's something we struggle with sometimes. Now, this is an aviation podcast, one in which I often promise the back story in all that we do in air world, and since aviation journalism is how we spread the word about pretty much all that happens in it, I figured an Episode like this is fair game. If you're new here, this one's a little different. Regular listeners will know that I'm an administrator at the 21st century aerospace communicators group, along with many notable aviation writers you've actually heard of, and if you're curious, make sure to get on Facebook and request to be in the group too. Oh, and don't forget to go back and listen to Episode 52 for more about us. The group is led by Rob Mark, and no matter where you fall in the spectrum of civil aviation, you'll probably be familiar with his work. He's the Senior Editor at FLYING Magazine and the publisher of JetWhine.com, long time Airplane Geek over at the Airplane Geeks Podcast, Graduate of the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern, but most importantly of all, frequent guest on this show…. Ok maybe that's not the most important part, but he's back today because we really wanted to tackle a topic that's an underlying part of just about everything we read, hear, and watch in the news, aviation or not: Narrative It's a simple word, and it's defined by (Dictionary.com): a representation of a particular situation or process in such a way as to reflect or conform to an overarching set of aims or values. But the implications of it are huge. It's part of the entire brand of a news outlet. And, if you ask me, or anybody really, it often gets taken too far. To the point that things are straight up twisted to make a story pan out a certain way. And then twisted a little further to get more re-tweets… 21st Century Aerospace Communicators Group Bari Weiss resignation letter Has Twitter ruined Journalism?

The first was something of an unusual trip across the Swiss Alps in a PA-28.The second was flying into Zurich International Airport in a GA Aircraft, when he had just received his pilot's license.

Today, Air Traffic Control towers loom over airports, bringing order and safety to a huge network of airplanes crossing the globe. But what was it like to fly in the earliest days of aviation, before radios or signal towers? Retired FAA Air Traffic Controller Helen Parke-Wall shares stories from the beginnings of ATC. If you’ve hiked the prairies of the Midwest or the backcountry of the Southwestern United States, you may have stumbled across a massive, concrete arrow embedded into the ground. No, this wasn’t a relic of some long-forgotten civilization. It was one of several early attempts to help pilots find their way through the perilous skies of early aviation history. Museum of Flight Docent and retired FAA Executive/Air Traffic Controller Helen Parke-Wall sat down with us to talk about the origins of the Federal Aviation Administration. See some of the early tools for aviation navigation and organization yourself in The Museum of Flight’s Red Barn and Great Gallery exhibits. Plan your visit at http://museumofflight.org/.

If you are like me you listen to a plethora of aviation podcasts. I think some of the best aviation news comes from them and they stay on the topic I most care about most... aviation. A few months back I was listening to an episode of the Airplane Geeks Podcast and they were talking about the airplane of the week. One of the choices was the Aeronca Champ.If you didn't know back in the fall of 2008 I received my tailwheel endorsement in a red 1942 7AC Aeronca Champ. I don't think I've loved and airplane more then the Champ. I think it's a smilier experience to a first car or girl friend you never seem to forget it. Flying the Champ is real stick and rudder flying. Like any tail dragger you have to be quick on the rudder peddles but not hard I can still hear my instructor saying toe pressur that's all you need to control the rudder, sometimes not even that much just thinking about adding left or right rudder would do the trick. There is a real finesse in flying that I think so lost flying heavy more stable aircraft like a Cessna 172 or Piper Warrior. Just before my tailwheel endorsement I had just earned my private from Arizona State University's Pilot Development Program. A great program that gave me a great base of knowadge of aviation and my future certificates. But it was also very airline cockpit and Crew Resource Management (CRM) oriented. The company procedures were many and the Pilot Operating Hand Book (POH) for each plane were hundreds of pages along with the other supplement guides that the school required to fly with. In contrast the Champs POH was barley 50 pages. The equipment on board was a radio, transponder, altimeter, airspeed indicator and an oil temp gauge. Flying the Champ was like riding a bicycle Once I got the hang of it and in coordinated flight you could just feel everything in balance and it felt good. The visibility in the plane was amazing. It had large windows all around you and tandem seating so there was no one next to you to block your view. With a stick between your legs in place of a yoke it made the Champ more my kind of flying. After receiving my endorsement the Champ was my first choice for the airplane I wanted to take up as offen as I could when going around the patch or for short trips. It was fun and cheap then only $62 an hour wet!The airplane geeks did featured the Champ as the airplane of the week and David Vanderhoof did a great history segment on it followed by a story I told about flying back from Payson AZ to Mesa AZ and the experience I had of almost running out of fuel, I thought. hope you enjoy.Download the podcast here.This is the day I got my endorsementMy favorite picture in Champ coming in short final in to Falcon Field AZ (FFZ)
