Greg gives his lead for the morning which has to do with a possible food delivery law. Curtis asks what are we doing, airline edition.
The founder and CEO of Savvy Aviation explains the need for on-condition maintenance for GA, the proper roles of aircraft owners and mechanics, his Inspection Authorization training course, and his new Aviation Masters podcast. In the news, American Airlines is under fire from pilots and flight attendants, AA's financial performance, the departure of AOPA’s CEO, a United Airlines lawsuit, and the Inspector General audit of air traffic controller training. Also, an Airplane Geeks host announces his new aviation podcast. Guest Mike Busch is the founder and CEO of Savvy Aviation, which provides aircraft owners, operators, and maintenance professionals with expert guidance grounded in data-driven, reliability-centered maintenance principles. Through maintenance management, education, and advocacy, Savvy helps the General Aviation community improve safety, reliability, and cost control. Mike Busch, Savvy Aviation founder and CEO. Mike argues that general aviation aircraft are often over-maintained, wasting both owners' time and money while straining already limited mechanic capacity. He believes the industry should shift its focus toward on-condition, or reliability-centered, maintenance. Mechanics, he says, need to be trained to think critically—not just follow the manufacturer's book. By applying reliability-centered maintenance and working on-condition, our existing mechanics could be more efficient. Mike also outlines what a healthy, collaborative relationship between owners and mechanics should look like. SavvyAviation has introduced the free, FAA-accepted SavvyCertified training course designed for mechanics studying for Inspection Authorization renewal. Mike reports that many aircraft owners signed up for the course and find it valuable. He also has a new podcast called Aviation Masters. Mike is a well-known aviation writer, teacher, aviation type club tech rep, aircraft-owner advocate, and entrepreneur. He assists aircraft owners with their maintenance problems through his lectures, articles, and books. Mike is a National Aviation Maintenance Technician of the Year and has previously appeared in Episode 446 (April 5, 2017) and in Episode 667 (August 25, 2021). Aviation News Allied Pilots Association Delivers Scathing Ultimatum to American Management In a letter to the American Airlines Group Board of Directors, the Allied Pilots Association (APA) Board of Directors says, “Our airline is on an underperforming path and has failed to define an identity or a strategy to correct course” and “…it is the result of persistent patterns of operational, cultural, and strategic shortcomings.” “For more than a year, APA has voiced concerns regarding management's ability to turn the corner. Management has been given repeated opportunities to articulate a credible strategy and demonstrate measurable improvement. Those opportunities have passed without meaningful change. Despite repeated assurances, the operation continues to struggle under predictable stressors, exposing systemic weaknesses in preparation, execution, and decision making. These consequences are shouldered by our customers and employees every day. “ “These failures have negatively impacted the financial performance of our company and frustrated all stakeholders, to include shareholders, for far too long.” “American is no longer best in class financially, operationally, or in customer service. The pilots of American want our company to win and dominate the competition, not just survive and compete. Our careers are intrinsically tied to the fate and performance of this once-great airline.” The Allied Pilots Association (APA) is the collective bargaining agent for American Airlines (AA) pilots. Founded in 1963 and representing more than 16,000 pilots, the APA says it is the world’s largest independent pilots' union. “Shame On You”: American Airlines Flight Attendants Call for Shareholder Coup to Oust CEO Unlike the APA, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA) is calling for American Airlines’ chief executive, Robert Isom, to step down. In an internal memo addressed to Isom, APFA Chicago O'Hare base president Justin Patterson says, “I would like to say, sleeping on floors is NOT normal. Shame on you for trying to normalize this inhumane treatment. Doing the same thing on repeat and expecting different results [is] the definition of insanity.” Patterson asks, “Do you intend on running this airline with piss poor planning and posting minuscule profits again in 2026?” And “This company failed more than just the Flight Attendants… they failed everyone who works here. American Airlines failed our shareholders. They were derelict in their duties to our shareholders.” APFA is the official crew union that represents more than 28,000 AA flight attendants. Passengers Left Stunned By Miniature Tray Tables on American Airlines New Long-Haul A321XLR American Airlines flight attendant Heather Poole has posted on X photos of the new Economy cabin tray tables. Table depth is half what you'd normally expect from a tray table. A standard laptop will overhang the smaller tables, and the standard AA long-haul meal tray will as well. The table does not fold out or extend. Pressure mounts on American Airlines CEO as carrier lags rivals In 2025, Delta Air Lines posted $5 billion in net income with a 7.9% profit margin. United Airlines posted $3.3 billion in net income with a 5.7% margin. American Airlines made $111 million last year with a 0.2% margin. AOPA's Hiring a Crisis Communications Firm AOPA's board has reportedly hired a crisis‑management firm on a $250,000 retainer to handle intense backlash over the abrupt departure of CEO Darren Pleasance on February 4, 2026. Off-Duty FAA Inspector Claims He Got Lifetime Ban from United After He Pointed Out Alleged Safety Concerns Paul Asmus said that after a May 2022 flight where he pointed out his safety concerns, United removed him from the flight and gave him a lifetime travel ban. Asmus is suing United for $12.75 million in damages. The civil suit claims loss of wages, emotional distress, and punitive damages. Asmus, an FAA Inspector but off-duty, claims that he noticed a “torn seat-back pocket at his assigned seat,” which “impaired the ability to secure and access the emergency briefing card” and a passenger standing in the aisle while the aircraft pushed back from the gate. Asmus believed that he had an obligation to report the violations he observed and took photographs for an FAA report. Audit Initiated of Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy The U.S. Department of Transportation, Office of Inspector General announced the initiation of an audit. The Memorandum, Audit Announcement | Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy [PDF] (Project ID 26A3002A000), dated February 5, 2025, states that: “…the Academy is facing considerable challenges with training, including a shortage of qualified instructors, training capacity limitations, an outdated curriculum, and high training failure rates. Given the importance of increasing the number of certified controllers to safely manage the NAS, we are initiating this audit. The audit objectives will be to assess (1) FAA's efforts to address the Academy instructor shortages, training limitations, and trainee failure rates and (2) the Academy's progress with updating the air traffic controller training program curriculum.” The OIG plans to begin the audit “in the coming weeks.” The Office of Inspector General (OIG) works within the Department of Transportation (DOT) to promote the efficiency and effectiveness of DOT programs and operations and to detect and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse. See the OIG Active Audits list. Mentioned Stories About Flying podcast from Rob Mark. Aviation is an industry brimming with adventure and discovery at every turn.

Finding love when you're flying around the world sounds romantic! But it's often not... But as it's Valentine's week we thought we'd share with you the true story of how one ex cabin crew member found her dream man on a Caribbean trip. Because whilst a lot of the love life of a flight attendant is lonely nights in hotels and only meeting sleazy business men sat in First Class, there is sometimes the odd good love story out there. And this one involves a long layover in the Caribbean, and a ship full of Royal Navy boys.... So if you like to escape into a 30 minute beach read style audiobook story about love, and the life of a flight attendant - then this is for you!Music Credits for Hello SailorSteel Drum Intro Music by Christoph Scholl from PixabayCaribbean Steel Drum Happiness - Doug MaxwellSound Effects by freesound_community from Pixabay Sound Effect by Soul_Serenity_Sounds from PixabaySound Effect by Otto from Send us a text!

Kaley Cuoco (Vanished, The Big Bang Theory, The Flight Attendant) is an actor and producer. Kaley returns to discuss whether she's on the slippery slope to getting a tiger, her recent obsession with near-death experiences, and being blessed with the gift of the ability to sleep anywhere, anytime. Kaley and Dax talk about the manager-facilitated meet-cute with her now-fiancé, her hosting pitch for an NFL Honors gig, and how she has such a healthy attitude towards rejection as an actor. Kaley explains what was most memorable about walking onto Season 8 of Charmed as a new cast member, the game-changing decision to sleep in different bedrooms, and playing an archeologist in Albania on her new show Vanished.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Join Lionel on The Other Side of Midnight for an hour of raw, unfiltered commentary that goes where the mainstream media won't. Lionel dissects the bizarre "formulaic" coverage of the Savannah Guthrie kidnapping case, roasting the sheriff for attending a basketball game mid-investigation and questioning the "weird" background of the brother-in-law. The show takes a dark turn into the suppressed Epstein files before lightening up with hilarious, true tales of linguistic mishaps—from a "DUI vs. IUD" confusion to a grandmother screaming for "penis" instead of "peanuts" on a flight.

Kaley Cuoco stars as Alice Monroe, whose romantic getaway is suddenly derailed when her boyfriend Tom Parker (Sam Claflin) vanishes without a trace.As Alice starts assembling the clues and digging into the life she thought she knew, the episode piles on twists, red herrings, and big unanswered questions—perfect fuel for us to dissect. We also get into trivia, performances, critical reception, and how similar the premise feels compared to The Flight Attendant, Gone Girl, Unstoppable, and other “missing spouse” thrillers.Tune in and enjoy. Welcome to Today's Episode!
Send us a textIn this episode, we are joined by Cheryl Boone Isaacs, a former Pan Am stewardess from 1972 to 1974 who went on to build an extraordinary career in Hollywood. Her journey is a remarkable one that spans aviation, Hollywood, and film education. She began her professional career as a Pan Am stewardess from 1972 to 1974, an experience that gave her a global perspective and a deep appreciation for storytelling and human connection.After leaving Pan Am, Cheryl moved to San Franscico where she held various jobs. However, she always thought about either going back into aviation or pursuing her dream of being in the film business inspired in part by her brother, Ashley Boone, a pioneering film executive. Learn more about Ashley here: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/he-was-star-wars-secret-weapon-why-was-he-forgotten-1275211/Through him, she attended an advanced screening of Star Wars before its release in May 1977. That moment proved transformational and solidified her belief that the motion picture industry was where she belonged. So, she packed her bags and moved to Hollywood. Over the decades that followed, Cheryl worked on the marketing, publicity, and release of some of the most iconic films in cinema history. Her credits include Forrest Gump, Titanic, The King's Speech, Braveheart, The Artist, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Right Stuff, Once Upon a Time in America, The Wedding Singer, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, and Spider-Man 2. She also worked on two Indiana Jones films and five Star Trek films.Behind the scenes, Cheryl broke significant barriers. She became the first African American woman to lead a major studio marketing department at New Line Cinema, and later the first African American to serve as President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, where she guided the organization through a pivotal period of reflection and change.Today, she continues shaping the future of storytelling as the Founding Director and Professor of Practice at the Sidney Poitier New American Film School at Arizona State University (film.asu.edu). In that role, she mentors students and builds a program grounded in Sidney Poitier's legacy, emphasizing inclusion, leadership, and real-world industry experience.From the skies of Pan Am to Hollywood studios and now the classroom, Cheryl Boone Isaacs' career reflects a lifelong commitment to storytelling, leadership, and opening doors for future generations.

YES, they do BUT they do it for a reason
Major aviation incidents can floor a crew member. Whether that's an extended stay on your layover, or something as life changing as 9/11. These big events can completely change airline policies and safety regulations, and how flight attendants and pilots work.But some things never change, and that's the cabin crew's ability to make the best of a bad situation, and the call of The Crew Room is usually there to help the crew debrief, let loose and forget the big stuff, even for a short while.In today's episode of The Red Eye, we visit The Crew Room during several different major aviation events.

Welcome back to the Unchurched podcast for 2026! I've got a powerful one here to kick off the year. A true story about two flight attendants and what we can learn from it. I know you'll enjoy this one!
We sit down with Casey Talbot, a flight instructor at Thrust Flight, to talk about her journey from working as a flight attendant at Delta to becoming a certified flight instructor. Casey shares what it was really like to leave a stable airline career, start flight training in her mid-30s, and commit fully to aviation while raising two kids. We dive into fear, motivation, study habits, Part 141 flight training, checkrides, failures, and what helped her push through moments of doubt—especially during instrument training.

Este 2026 compite con un objetivo claro: estar delante y luchar por ser uno de los referentes del XCM mundial. En la entrevista nos cuenta con total sinceridad cuándo aparece la idea de dejar el XCO, cómo se madura una decisión así y por qué tiene sentido en este momento de su carrera.Hablamos largo y tendido de su fichaje por el Klimatiza Orbea, de las primeras sensaciones dentro del equipo y de cómo afronta este nuevo proyecto deportivo. Entramos a fondo en el material, su nueva Orbea OIZ, los componentes elegidos, qué opina del sistema Flight Attendant y qué cambios ha introducido en su entrenamiento para adaptarse a las exigencias del maratón.Por supuesto, también miramos al calendario. Analizamos la Cape Epic, su importancia dentro de la temporada y cuáles serán los grandes objetivos del año, con el Mundial de XCM marcado en rojo.Además, en la parte final del podcast os contamos cómo va nuestra propia Cape Epic: cuánto nos ha costado la inscripción, cómo hemos planteado el presupuesto y qué bicicletas vamos a llevar a Sudáfrica.Una entrevista espectacular, honesta y muy técnica, con un corredor que ha marcado una época y que ahora vuelve a empezar desde otro lugar, con la ambición intacta. Si te gusta el mountain bike de verdad, este episodio es imprescindible.
Would you board a plane knowing you might have a medical emergency on board? Can you imagine being in a situation where you'd risk your own life, or that of your baby, just to make a journey you didn't really need to make?And what about the flight attendants who have to deal with the emotional toll of dealing with medical emergencies? Or your fellow passengers who might miss their own connections or major life events because your life is at risk in the air so plane has to divert before reaching it's final destination?On today's episode, we hear the true story of a woman who stretched the truth about how pregnant she was, and nearly gave birth in the air. And how that affects the cabin crew who are expected to become midwives at 38,000ft!Music Credits for The Determined TravellerLow Noon - John PatitucciSound Effects by freesound_community from Pixabay Sound Design by Ally MurphySend us a text!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Happy New Year!! In this episode, I share what "Cleared for Take Off" means to me. I focus on my roles as a former international Flight Attendant, a colon cancer survivor, a doctoral student, and the title of my new book. I encourage others never to give up and to follow their dreams, even when circumstances are turbulent. What do you need to start the new year off strong and soar? Let's Gooooooo!!!

She decided to try make the best of the situation and arranged for the crew to visit an orphanage to give the children there gifts. But she ended up with a whole new perspective on life.Being cabin crew around Christmas isn't the best. You're often alone in a hotel room whilst your family celebrate without you. So this episode is a reminder that no matter how you celebrate, every day on this planet is a gift - so make the most of every opportunity!If you like escaping into short stories, audio fiction based on true stories, or are just interested in the lives of those who work in aviation - this is the podcast for you!Send us a text!

This show is made possible by you! Description [original release date July 2025]: Sara Nelson knows how to leverage worker power — and so do the 55,000 flight attendants she represents. A union member since 1996, she's been the International President of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, AFL-CIO since 2014. You may remember her integral role in threatening a strike, which helped pressure the Trump administration to end the 2019 government shutdown.

What is her message and her mission for 2025? All that, plus a commentary from Laura on floods and profits.“We have to understand that if one group is under attack, we're next.

In light of recent air travel developments impacting Americans, this week Andrew and Pam are speaking to a flight attendant, Amanda, who shares the pro's and con's of taking on this always-on-the-go job! The travel opportunities are amazing, but is it worth being away from home so often? The good news is that it may be possible to fit it into your existing work life! Plus, we discuss the some travel tips and why you shouldn't grow too concerned about the headlines you're seeing about travel delays in the media. In more fun travel news, where are people intending to travel to in 2026? (Also: Where can I get some cheap botox?) This and much more is discussed! Elsewhere in the episode, we celebrate some good news for LGBTQ+ Americans, look on Senate Dems with disappointment, and drop recommendations for the savings app Oportun (Andrew) and Guillermo del Toro's ‘Frankenstein' (Pam). This week in After Dark, exclusively available on Patreon, we discuss the art of complaining, and how to be a better complainer so that your concerns don't haunt you for a lifetime. We also share some recent complaints we've shared with our friends, and what people probably don't like about us. Yes, it's time to look inward! Please do tell us what you think people complain about regarding Andrew and Pam in the comments
We get into our Mens Room Question: What is your messed up travel story?
