What happens when you know how to do something, but pressure makes it difficult to actually do it?Certified Mental Performance Consultant Zoran Stojković has spent more than 15 years helping people perform under pressure, from professional athletes and Olympic hopefuls to RCAF pilot trainees.In Part 1, Zoran shares the path that took him from competitive tennis and high-performance sport to 2 Canadian Forces Flying Training School in Moose Jaw. He explains what surprised him about the pressures facing student pilots, how he earned credibility as a civilian working inside military aviation, and why relationships became central to his work.We also hear how Zoran supported aircrew during Jaw South in Texas, how mental performance coaching became embedded in the flying environment, and what aviation taught him about the difference between high stakes and real stakes.CHAPTERS(00:00:00) Introduction, welcome and bio(00:01:52) What role did sport play growing up?(00:04:28) Why can we perform in practice but struggle under pressure?(00:09:41) When did mental performance become a career?(00:13:03) What did Zoran get wrong when he started coaching?(00:15:21) What kind of pressure are Olympians under?(00:18:35) Helping a professional tennis player turn things around(00:20:22) Going from athletes to pilots(00:23:23) Walking into 2CFFTS for the first time(00:26:53) What surprised Zoran about the pressure on student pilots?(00:30:13) High stakes versus real stakes(00:31:37) Earning credibility in aviation as an outsider(00:34:17) What happens when pilots don't buy into mental performance coaching?(00:38:44) A pilot success story(00:42:36) Deploying with Jaw South(00:47:27) What is Jaw South, and where did Zoran fit in?(00:51:57) Helping a student in crisis before a flight(00:53:49) Making progress in a slow-moving institution(00:57:03) Meeting Colonel Jeremy Hansen(01:01:30) Advice for a student pilot before a testEXPLORE THE LOGBOOKMore stories from RCAF and mission aviation pilots:The Pilot Project Podcast episode archive:https://podpilotproject.transistor.fm/episodes

In this episode of United Flight Systems, Bobby Doss continues his conversation with DPE Wally Mulhearn in part two of Ask the DPE. They dive deep into what makes an examiner nervous during checkrides, particularly during simulated engine failures and low altitude go-arounds. Wally explains the importance of proper go-around procedures versus touch-and-goes and why examiners avoid the latter on checkrides. The discussion covers the fine line between an ugly maneuver and an unsafe pilot, emphasizing crew resource management and speaking up early. Applicants learn about checklist discipline as a critical factor, the value of accurate but not overly precise calculations like density altitude, and how decision-making skills are tested from the start. Wally shares insights on common failures, pet peeves with scheduling, and best recoveries after mistakes. The episode wraps with lightning round questions and advice for applicants the night before their checkride. Tune in for invaluable tips to succeed on your next checkride.

In this episode of Behind the Prop, Bobby interviews DPE Wally Mulhern in Ask the DPE Part I. They cover what makes an applicant look ready before walking in the door, including flight time reasonableness on the 8710, IACRA applications, solo versus PIC time, and required cross country, night, and instrument time. Wally shares signs that someone was sent too early, such as last-minute urgency and poor planning. They discuss communication preferences like email or text with full details including FTN, paperwork mistakes like missing logged ground school and class totals, dress and appearance expectations, pet peeves including answering the question directly, whether DPEs try to intimidate applicants, the meaning of questions like are you sure about that, open book orals, looking things up, maneuver tolerances per the ACS preamble, asking for breaks, and whether the DPE hopes applicants pass.

Colonel Todd O'Malley begins a four-part journey through the history of Canadian tactical and special operations aviation. Now Director Air and Space at CANSOFCOM, Todd looks back on the unlikely path that took him from Sault College and an early setback in civilian flight training to earning his RCAF wings and joining 427 Squadron as a CH-135 Twin Huey pilot.In Part 1, Todd explains how failure reshaped his approach to preparation, recalls the fighter-driven culture of 1980s Moose Jaw, and describes the disappointment of being selected for helicopters. He also takes listeners inside the demanding transition to rotary-wing flying, from hovering and auto-rotations to the hard-earned change in attitude that helped him find his place in tactical aviation. The episode concludes with advice for student pilots whose careers take an unexpected direction.CONTINUE THE FLIGHTEXPLORE THE LOGBOOKMore stories from RCAF and mission aviation pilots https://podpilotproject.transistor.fm/episodesChapters(00:00:00) Introduction and Welcome(00:03:02) Meet Colonel Todd O'Malley(00:04:37) What Drew Todd to the RCAF?(00:07:48) Sault College and a Different Path(00:09:29) Being Removed from Flight Training(00:12:13) The Lesson That Changed His Career(00:15:14) Pilot Training Culture in 1980s Moose Jaw(00:20:34) Navigating Phase Two Flight Training(00:24:05) Coping with a Helicopter Selection(00:27:56) Why Helicopters Are So Difficult to Learn(00:30:58) How a Helicopter Autorotation Works(00:34:37) Learning from Hard Landings(00:38:46) Re-Caging His Attitude Toward Helicopters(00:41:35) Finding His Place in Tactical Aviation(00:44:30) Arriving at a Grieving 427 Squadron(00:45:30) Twin Huey vs. Griffon(00:48:43) Making the Most of an Unexpected Aircraft Selection(00:51:51) Final Thoughts and What's Next

Join NAFI today to gain access to exclusive content, mentoring opportunities, and a community of dedicated CFIs. Join here: https://nafimentor.org/become-a-member/ What do flight instruction, medical education, and professional music have in common? More than you might think. In this episode of More Right Rudder, Beth Stanton sits down with Ed Stefan, Gold Seal CFI, accomplished musician, and principal timpanist with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, to explore the surprising parallels between mastering music and mastering aviation. The conversation expands on Ed's Mentor magazine article, Instrument Approach: Comparing Flight Training and Musical Mastery, and complements the July/August 2026 Mentor feature, Teaching for Judgment: Shared Lessons from Medical Education and Flight Training, by Erin Dabney and the late Dr. Victor Vogel. Together, they discuss: - Why great instructors do far more than teach technical skills - How deliberate practice builds lasting expertise - The importance of finding the right instructor and developing a productive student-teacher relationship - What aviation can learn from music and medical education about judgment, feedback, and continuous improvement - The concept of "mastering mastery" and why learning how to learn is one of the most valuable skills any pilot can develop - How experienced professionals transfer lessons between seemingly unrelated disciplines Whether you're a flight instructor, student pilot, aviation mentor, or lifelong learner, this conversation offers practical insights into becoming a better teacher, a better learner, and ultimately a better aviator. #FlightTraining #FlightInstructor #CFI #Aviation #LearnToFly #ProfessionalDevelopment #NAFI #MoreRightRudder

Donald Maloy of Maloy Aircraft joins Nik to share his vision for a more streamlined path from zero experience to becoming an airline-ready pilot. Drawing on his background as a Naval Aviator, he explains how the structure, standards, and consistency of military flight training could translate to more efficient outcomes in the civilian world.
