Join us in our first phase of FRESHPPACT as we talk to representatives of Waitrose & Partners, Blue Skies and the University of Northampton Centre for Sustainable Business Practices about their forthcoming trip to Ghana! This critical mission to Ghana will seek to further define the challenges around plastics in the supply chain, helping us to ensure we find the most suitable and impactful solutions that can benefit the whole industry. We go live with them all on the next stage of the exciting FRESHPPACT adventure to find out more prior to a key trip to the key Blues Skies site in Ghana. On the panel we have: George Barrett - Sustainability Manager (Circular Economy) , Waitrose & Partners  Dr. Ebenezer Laryea – Senior Lecturer in Law, University of Northampton Hella Lipper-Morse – Head of Technical, Blue Skies  Lana Mo – Head of Innovation at Blue Skies John Oldham – Purchasing Manager, Blue Skies Ben Thomas – Senior Environment Manager, Waitrose & Partners The Fresh Produce Impact Hub, known as FRESHPPACT, will collaborate with retailers, manufacturers and agribusinesses operating within food supply chains rooted in developing or emerging economies to identify shared high-priority social and environmental challenges, and work with research partners to accelerate the adoption of the most promising solutions through a process of rapid evaluation, testing and adoption.   FRESHPPACT is being implemented by Blue Skies and supported by Waitrose, which has been awarded a UKAid grant to develop the operating model and launch three challenge funds to find solutions to problem plastics found in agricultural mulch, workwear and packaging. Solutions may include new technology and business models that mitigate plastic pollution through material substitution, accelerated biodegradation and improved manufacturing and remanufacturing processes. The UKAid grant has been made via the Sustainable Manufacturing and Pollution Programme (SMEP). The SMEP programme is funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and is implemented in partnership with the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The grant has been awarded for an initial period until April 2022.  FRESHPPACT is inviting expressions of interest from organisations who would like to be involved in launching the challenge funds and/or identifying solutions. Expressions of Interest may come from, but is not limited to retailers, fresh produce companies, research organisations (including universities) and solutions providers.

The forecast calls for Blues Skies as your Pigeons claim the underdog victory with only ten men against the titans of titans, the New England Revs. A hard fought match which ended in 2-2 draw and a 5-3 win in penalties started chaotic and only went from there, and your boys Jake and Trey dissect every beat of it. Where are the subs? How did our human victory cigar do? Who's injured and who ain't? Who failed the discipline test? And of course, how did we capture our first win in penalties in franchise history??Then: Philly on Sunday. With no MLS-Best-XI Taty Castellanos, what are NYCFC's attacking options? What if the Sandsman has to take a breather? How will NYCFC win its first conference final? All that and more this week; try to stretch before you freak out, you've got Blue Balls.

Guy Clarke is joined by Senior Sports Editor James Whaling and Connor Bromley for the latest EFL chat on Football Digest. The panel look at West Brom and Fulham's strong starts in the Championship as they bid for an immediate return to the Premier League, as well as considering the difficult starts for both Nottingham Forest and Sheffield United, while Coventry may lay claim to the division's surprise early starters. In League One, there's a focus on Sheffield Wednesday under the stewardship of Darren Moore having taken 10 points from the opening four games following relegation last time out. Plus, in League Two Forest Green Rovers' 100% start is commended with Rob Edwards' side the only club in the EFL to have taken maximum points. Enjoy.

BLUES SKIES. SATURDAY: 2/22/20

What a great time of year.  A time of change and a time of giving.  Marc focused on some of those changes, starting with the shift from shorter days to longer days.  For him, a welcome emotional change.  As the new year approaches, Marc also talked about getting back his Avgeek swagger.  Something that has diminished due to less flying in 2015.  With visions of more hours in 2016, he hopes all of you will join him in that goal. A big change is on the horizon with the government seemingly on our side, with the Senate providing the next version of the Pilot Bill of Rights, including 3rd class medical reform.  How cool would it be to know you have already had your last AME exam, and only need to stay healthy and have your personal physician approve you for flight every 4 years, and every two years, for you to take a free on-line course regarding Aeromedical Factors in flight.  Well that's what's about to happen, if the house and the president follow the Senate's path.  Is that good or bad?  We heard what Marc thinks.... how about you?  Send your comments via the Simpleflight.net web site. In the meantime, thanks for listening and accept our best wishes for a happy holiday season and a healthy and happy New Year. Blues Skies and Tailwinds!

Al found time to be in Chicago on Sunday night and finally could enlighten us as to what happened with his engine dilemma that he spoke to us about two months ago.  What a learning experience for him...and now for us.  Airplane ownership is more than just flying the plane.  Listen in and learn the finer points of airplane ownership decision making.Marc and Al also talked about business current events in General Aviation, as well as some of the great and not so great technologies in the cockpit.  And finally, Marc clued us in on possible the best FBO in the nation.  We think you'll agree.Thanks for listening.Blues Skies and Tailwinds

Are You Aviation Radio Friendly?One of the greatest assets the U.S. Airspace has to offer today's pilot is the air traffic control system.  But how do we leverage it, and how do we become a value added participant?That's what Marc and Al discussed tonight.  Pilots that aren't comfortable in the system can slow it down and make it less effective for all other pilots.  Some of the faux pas' include: Not being prepared to speak.  This usually ends up with the pilot doing a lot of thinking while the push to talk button is pushed. Be careful of holding the push to talk switch and leaving dead air! Watch the number of "Uhhhh's and Ummm's" Using a lot of extra words 2.  Not knowing where they are.But for those that practice their communication by adhering to the following tips, will get more out of the system for themselves and their fellow pilots.1.  Saying your initial call to ATC in your head first, prior to pushing the mic button and saying it the second time;2.  Confirming your location with your avionics, prior to making a request call to ATC;3.  Making sure you are primarily listening for your call sign while you are having a discussion with your passengers;4.  Pausing prior to speaking to ensure the line is clear;5.  Using Roger, Wilco, and Affirmative appropriately when responding to ATC; 6.  Being confident and succinct in your communications.Also, be familiar with the services ATC provides all pilots whether it's VFR or IFR.  ATC is there to help.  You just have to know what they can do and how to ask for it.Blues Skies and Tailwinds.
