In this episode of Flying Magazine's "I learned about flying from that" podcast, host Rob Reider speaks with Tim Kurrek about a truly challenging incident that occurred over 20 years ago. Tim, a longtime instructor with extensive tailwheel and glider experience, was on what should have been a routine flight in IMC in his trusted Cessna 180 when the engine suddenly and unexpectedly quit. With no autopilot and the gyros spooling down, Tim was immediately thrust into a situation requiring proficient hand flying and quick thinking. After declaring the engine failure and contacting NorCal, he began troubleshooting while maintaining his best glide speed. However, battling heavy rain and downdrafts, Tim realized his descent rate was higher than expected, and he wouldn't make the initial airport NorCal vectored him towards, which was surrounded by suburbia. This critical realization forced a rapid decision and a change of course towards what he hoped would be more suitable terrain. Breaking out of the clouds at a low altitude, he faced the daunting task of selecting and landing on an unconventional off-airport site under challenging muddy and crosswind conditions. The landing, while successful in preserving life and aircraft integrity, presented its own immediate set of problems with the aircraft sinking into the mud. What followed involved navigating interactions with a gruff local farmer, law enforcement, and the FAA, all while trying to understand the mysterious engine failure. Ultimately, the cause of the engine issue was identified, and the challenging process of recovering the aircraft from the field, with the farmer's reluctant assistance, became another chapter in the story. Tim shares the powerful lessons learned about the importance of aircraft knowledge, maintaining pilot proficiency, critical situational awareness, and the absolute necessity of pre-planning flights, even IFR ones, with VFR charts to understand the ground below. His experience vividly illustrates astronaut Frank Borman's quote: "A superior pilot uses his superior judgment to avoid situations which require the use of his superior skill".
Episode 209 In this episode of the Observers Notebook podcast, host Tim Robertson talks to Jack Daleo, Reporter covering the modern flying beat for FLYING Magazine, writing about topics like drones, unmanned aircraft systems, advanced air mobility and space travel. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and FAA oversee investigations of aircraft accidents in U.S. airspace. But what happens when a crash occurs hundreds of millions of miles away in outer space? Engineers with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) manufacturer Aerovironment, a prominent aerospace and defense contractor, are conducting what the space agency on Wednesday said is the first aircraft accident investigation on another world. Personnel are examining the final flight of NASA's Ingenuity Mars helicopter, which hurtled into the Red Planet's surface and was retired in January. We discuss Jack's life and contact information.

Max discusses engine-out scenarios and best glide strategies, prompted by listener feedback on Episode 372, which analyzed the crash of a Bonanza B35B (N2UZ) that suffered engine failure at 7,500 feet near Charlottesville, VA. Although the pilot did many things correctly, he overshot a long field and crashed. Max highlights choices that might have improved the outcome, such as flight following and alternate route planning. Listener emails, read by Aviation News Talk intern Kelly, offer insights and experiences. Karen Larson shares how a conversation about the episode helped her husband safely land a T6 with a failed engine. David Dismore and Nico Ghilardi emphasize the value of practicing power-off landings, especially from high altitudes. Daniel Switkin points out that glide range rings in EFB apps may not always be reliable, referencing an AOPA test. Carter Boswell inquires about glide differences between windmilling and stopped props. Max references Peter Garrison and Tom Turner for technical insight. Bozzie Boswell from Australia introduces the AvPlan EFB app, which offers planning features to keep routes within gliding range of airports. Max underscores the importance of preparation, practice, and situational awareness to improve survival chances during engine-out emergencies.

Today's guest is Craig Fuller, Founder and CEO of FreightWaves and CEO of FLYING Magazine. We get into some of the early observations that Craig had when he was building out FreightWaves, which is a software data business with a media empire sitting around it. He shares the challenges associated with fundraising for a media business and why the market doesn't put a value on audiences. In the second half of our conversation we get into Craig's playbook for buying up niche magazines around things like private aviation and boating. He explains why it is so important to capture the full audience base and some of the fun projects that he has been tying in around those audiences. This is a wide ranging conversation with someone who has taken a very interesting approach coming in as a practitioner, once a pilot himself, and how he's taken some of those lessons and applied them into building businesses.

Summary 283 Max talks about his experience getting a helicopter add-on rating, and how you can do it too. The FAA allows a fixed wing pilot to add-on a helicopter rating with 30 hours of helicopter time. For someone without a pilot certificate, they'll need a minimum of 40 hours of time. The add-on helicopter checkride for a pilot is relatively short compared to the checkride a non-pilot would have to do.

Fast Five from Sporty's - aviation podcast for pilots, by pilots
GA is booming, and new Flying magazine owner Craig Fuller says this isn't just a passing fad. He explains why he believes the industry is experiencing a renaissance right now, with a new generation of pilots attracted by YouTube and a new generation of aviation businesses funded by venture capital. He also shares why he's such a believer in print magazines, what the new business model is for media companies, and how a fly-in community is part of his strategy. In the Ready to Copy segment, Craig talks about Top Gun, a potential eVTOL bust, and the lessons aviation can learn from the trucker shortage.

Some of you time already know the story behind this weeks episode but for those who don't… it's one worth hearing and for some, repeating. Bob Hoover is an Aviation hall of fame legend; he was a fighter pilot, test pilot and record setting air show aviator. He spent 16ms in a German prisoner of war camp, was the right hand man for Chuck Yeager(the first man to break the speed of sound) and most famously his fight for his FAA medical license. In 2013 the Flying Magazine ranked him 10th on its list of the 51 Heroes of Aviation. Listen now to hear more!

Don't own an airport? Build one yourself, then create a real estate empire around it. Oh and run a media company as well. Meet the high flying COO. Amelia Earhart changed the aviation story back in 1927. Flying Magazine picked up the narrative and, still going strong, was acquired by the Flying Media Group in 2021. But what happens when you need a media HQ that reflects your values and can't find an airport to buy? You create your own. Adam gets into it with Preston, discussing monetizing through aviation real estate, creating flying communities, and why you need to adjust your media to fit your market. You'll also hear Preston's hot takes on creating a media brand with good will and why aviation has such a strong affinity with print. Bold and brave, this is a media masterplan that needs to be heard to be believed.

Logistics and supply chains are usually the last things on our minds. We expect shelves to be stocked with our favorite foods and gadgets, and packages to arrive at our doorsteps within days of ordering them online. But recent disruptions have created a new interest in these typically disregarded topics. In this episode of Bulls, Bears, and Bourbon we take a peek behind the logistics curtain to answer some of the common questions that have been asked over the past year. Craig Fuller is the founder and CEO of FreightWaves, the leading provider of global supply chain market intelligence and news. Prior to FreightWaves, Craig was the founder of TransCard, a major provider of fleet fuel and debit cards. He is also the CEO of FLYING Magazine, the world's most widely read aviation magazine. Previously, Fuller founded the Xpress Direct division of US Xpress, the leading provider of on-demand expedited truckload services. He holds a BBA from Baylor University and is a private pilot. He lives with his wife and 5 kids in Chattanooga, TN. Enjoy this educational, wide-ranging discussion on the wild world of logistics. [1:32] – Introducing Craig Fuller [5:25] – The Trucker Shortage Lie – “the driver shortage is a lie – it never existed.” “The number of new trucking fleets to enter the market has never been higher.” [13:22] – Trucking Recession– “you have this massive bubble, like you have in a lot of markets, that's encouraged a lot of new trucking companies to join the market – they've been seeing these rates.” [15:40] – Diesel Prices – “Diesel prices are up $1.85/gallon with no end in sight. So, we've seen an acceleration of diesel prices by about 60%. And just to put that into perspective, diesel is the number one variable cost of trucking companies.” [23:00] –China– “They have the instrument of zero-tolerance for Covid, which means they will shutter their entire economy and basically jail and imprison their own people in their own homes until they sort of get control of Covid and stop the spread.” “They are starving global markets, global consumers, of goods in addition to shutting down their cities…we can only watch this in shock and dismay.” “We could see by the end of May, the volume of products leaving China being about half.” [33:35] – Normal – “we are not going back to normal. We have to stop looking at what normal means. The world has changed.” “The energy crisis is playing out right in front of our eyes…then you have the supply chain crisis…we're not going back to the way things were.” [48:40] Freedom Trade– “You have to ask yourself should be thinking about in the future, a freedom trade – we're only going to trade with partners that are on a level playing field and treat ESG issues as we do in the West.” [58:50] –Logistics Tech – “the world has changed because of these logistics technologies that were driven by capitalism and American orientation of global markets…it's not digitizing the information systems and payments systems.” [1:06:50] – What does wealth mean? – “wealth is different than what's in your bank account. Wealth is having all parts of your life satisfied. So I know people who make $40,000 a year and are content…then you have other people who make millions of dollars and are always stressed about money. They're sacrificing time with their families…that isn't wealth to me.” [1:10:40] – What's one piece of advice you'd give yourself if you could go back in time? – “The two most important decisions you'll make in life are who do you network with and how do you network…and who their partners are in life (their spouse).” Links: www.bullsbearsandbourbon.com www.vermillionprivatewealth.com https://twitter.com/FreightAlley (https://twitter.com/FreightAlley) https://www.freightwaves.com/ (https://www.freightwaves.com/) **The information in this podcast is educational and general in nature and does not take into consideration the listener's personal circumstances.

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?

It's been almost a year and a half since the Atlas crash, and that's about how long it takes the NTSB to complete a formal investigation, and to issue a Probable Cause statement. And boy did they ever… The idea that a 767 could just fall out of the sky vertically, with no warning, was weird enough to suggest that this wouldn't be a typical case, but now that the truth is out, the weirdness doesn't disappoint. There's a great article out there from Rob Mark, at FLYING Magazine, and there's a link in the show notes, just in case you missed it. But today Rob's here, in the flesh, and we have a pretty cool talk for you. And it's about more than just what happened, it's about why it happened, and whether or not we can even prevent something like this from happening in the future. And I sure hope we can. But as you'll hear, it'll take a lot more than just a few tweaks in the training Department… From Rob's Article: The NTSB issued six new safety recommendations following the investigation into the Atlas Air 3591 accident. The NTSB said the FAA should issue a safety alert for all Boeing 757/767 operators warning of the possibility of an inadvertent go-around activation when the pilot flying is in close proximity to the speed brake handle. The NTSB also wants to see the vulnerabilities of the current pilot record system that would include the results of all pilot training once it begins, regardless of the result and that the system be easily searchable by pilot certificate number. The Board reiterated its call for advanced cockpit video recorder systems for Part 121/135 aircraft. On the human side of the equation, the NTSB reiterated to the FAA the urgent need to “require all Part 121 and 135 air carriers to obtain any notices of disapproval for flight checks for certificates and ratings for all pilot applicants and evaluate this information before making a hiring decision. To also require Part 121, 135, and 91K operators to document and retain electronic and/or paper records of pilot training and checking events in sufficient detail so the the carrier and its principal operations inspector can fully assess a pilot's entire training performance. The Board also wants to see all training records provided to hiring employers as required under the PRIA and to develop a method of verifying the accuracy of those training records.” I'm sure you've got at least one opinion on something you've heard today. So, If you want to weigh in on what Rob and I talked about, I can't wait to hear from you, make sure to shoot me an email at Brandon@podcastingonaplane.com GOOOOOOD DAY! -BG Related Links: Rob's Article in FLYING Magazine: https://www.flyingmag.com/story/news/atlas-air-pilots-somatogravic-illusion-reaction/ NTSB's video Board's abstract of the investigation PlaneEnglish ATC Simulator - Get 10% off with code: delta Support: https://www.patreon.com/podcastingonaplane Buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/BravoGolf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastingonaplane/ Twitter: podcastonaplane Website: www.podcastingonaplane.com Music by: Damma Beatz Make sure to use good equipment!

Today on the Show. What happens when a couple of guys with a double sided long view get together and start talking shop about something important to them? So, a little about Rob. As if you didn't know, he's the senior editor at Flying Magazine. You've all heard him for years on Airplane Geeks, and on his own JetWhine production at Jetwhine.com. He's a journalism Alum @Northwestern University, and this is where our story takes a fun turn. I don't think either one of us knew how much we had in common! My Wife went to Northwestern. And I went to Purdue. I flew up there a lot to visit, and I always flew into PWK airport. Now “Chicago Executive” whatever. A lot of people don't know this, but Rob used to be a Controller too. His office is something I've probably driven past 100 times in Evanston. It looks like our careers are following a strikingly similar path so far. Him and I have gone back and forth before, and he's even recorded a piece for this show called “the scariest takeoff I ever made” (Episode 023). Cool. But there's still the matter of this whole “chat” thing. It's probably time we get that sorted out…

AirVenture 2021 had a number of exciting announcements and perhaps one of the more interesting stories on the media front was the acquisition of Flying Magazine by freight industry entrepreneur and pilot Craig Fuller.Craig also runs FreightWaves, Inc. a company that is known as "The Bloomberg of Freight". FreightWaves offers current digital intelligence and context to the freight community on a central platform. Craig will now bring this digital expertise to the helm of Flying Magazine. Craig is a pilot who began flying during his teenage years, but stepped away from it during college and his twenties. He recently stepped back into the cockpit after about 20 years away. What brought him back to aviation? In no small part, the ICON A5.
Avination, what is going on and welcome to episode 191 of the Pilot to Pilot podcast. Today we are talking with the new owner of Flying Magazine, Craig Fuller. Find out how the deal was made, what the future holds for Flying Magazine and how Craig was bit you the aviation bug.
My guest on this episode is Craig Fuller. Craig is the founder of FreightWaves, a data and media business focused on freight and supply chains. FreightWaves is a VC backed company with $19 million in revenue with editorial content, a data product, job board, video content, and multiple podcasts. Prior to FreightWaves, Craig had no background in media but has built quite a playbook for media businesses with a data component. Craig, as of a month ago, is also the new owner of Flying Magazine, an iconic, blue-chip publishing brand in the general aviation community which we discuss extensively in this episode. For a deeper background on FreightWaves, I highly recommend his episode on A Media Operator, which we'll link to in the show notes. During our conversation, we discuss his fascinating background in his family's trucking business, starting a tech business before FreightWaves, launching FreightWaves, and his acquisition of Flying Magazine and his plans for growth and improvement.

Summary192 Max talks with Flying Magazine's Rob Mark about minimizing takeoff risks. Per the NTSB, 26% of fatalities occur during takeoff, so pilots need to plan for what they'll do if things don't go well during the takeoff. Engine failure can occur, but a partial power loss is three times more likely than a complete engine failure. Rob also shares a long list of tips for avoiding takeoff emergencies. Rob's Tips for Avoiding Takeoff Emergencies • Don't simply read the before-takeoff checklist; make sure you've accomplished the required tasks. • Recheck that the tank chosen for takeoff contains sufficient fuel. • Check that the backup fuel pump is on if the aircraft requires it for takeoff. • Recheck that takeoff flaps are properly set. • How many inches of manifold pressure and/or what rpm should the engine deliver during the takeoff roll? • Don't accept an intersection departure that leaves valuable runway behind you. • Note the distance (in feet) of your upcoming ground roll. • Highlight the intersection where the aircraft should break ground. • If you're not airborne by the highlighted spot, do you have enough remaining runway to stop? • Have you surveyed the area off the departure end of the runway for potential landing spots? • If you've never practiced making a 180-degree turn back after a loss of power, don't make today the day to try one. • If you're forced into an off-airport landing, your job is to protect the people on board—the airplane's insured.

In 1977, West German tourist Erwin Kreuz spent three days enjoying the sights, sounds, and hospitality of Bangor, Maine. Unfortunately, he thought he was in San Francisco, on the other side of the continent. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast, we'll describe Kreuz's unlikely adventure, which made him a local hero in his adopted city. We'll also consider an invisible killer and puzzle over a momentous measurement. Intro: In 1712, Sweden observed a February 30. In 1898, J.W. Dunne dreamed correctly that his watch had stopped.

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: NarrativeIt’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 GroupBari Weiss resignation letterHas Twitter ruined Journalism?PlaneEnglish ATC Simulator - Get 10% off with code: deltaSupport: https://www.patreon.com/podcastingonaplaneBuy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/BravoGolfInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastingonaplane/Twitter: podcastonaplaneWebsite: www.podcastingonaplane.com Music by: Danijel Zambo Make sure to use good equipment!Bose Headset: https://amzn.to/2FFaKjNBose ProFlight: https://amzn.to/2VZAJrPLightspeed Sierra Headset: https://amzn.to/2suAqYALightspeed Zulu 3 Headset: https://amzn.to/2RPGg5i David Clark: https://amzn.to/2FE3y7r #aviation #aviationphotography #flying #atc #airtrafficcontrol #airtrafficcontrolpodcast #aviationpodcast #aopa #whywefly #foreflight #erau #purdue #avgeek #instaaviation #avgeekery #pilotlife #audioengineer #podcastingonaplane
It’s been almost a year and a half since the Atlas crash, and that’s about how long it takes the NTSB to complete a formal investigation, and to issue a Probable Cause statement. And boy did they ever…The idea that a 767 could just fall out of the sky vertically, with no warning, was weird enough to suggest that this wouldn’t be a typical case, but now that the truth is out, the weirdness doesn’t disappoint.There’s a great article out there from Rob Mark, at FLYING Magazine, and there’s a link in the show notes, just in case you missed it. But today Rob’s here, in the flesh, and we have a pretty cool talk for you. And it’s about more than just what happened, it’s about why it happened, and whether or not we can even prevent something like this from happening in the future.And I sure hope we can. But as you’ll hear, it’ll take a lot more than just a few tweaks in the training Department…From Rob's Article:The NTSB issued six new safety recommendations following the investigation into the Atlas Air 3591 accident. The NTSB said the FAA should issue a safety alert for all Boeing 757/767 operators warning of the possibility of an inadvertent go-around activation when the pilot flying is in close proximity to the speed brake handle. The NTSB also wants to see the vulnerabilities of the current pilot record system that would include the results of all pilot training once it begins, regardless of the result and that the system be easily searchable by pilot certificate number. The Board reiterated its call for advanced cockpit video recorder systems for Part 121/135 aircraft.On the human side of the equation, the NTSB reiterated to the FAA the urgent need to “require all Part 121 and 135 air carriers to obtain any notices of disapproval for flight checks for certificates and ratings for all pilot applicants and evaluate this information before making a hiring decision. To also require Part 121, 135, and 91K operators to document and retain electronic and/or paper records of pilot training and checking events in sufficient detail so the the carrier and its principal operations inspector can fully assess a pilot’s entire training performance. The Board also wants to see all training records provided to hiring employers as required under the PRIA and to develop a method of verifying the accuracy of those training records.”I’m sure you’ve got at least one opinion on something you’ve heard today. So, If you want to weigh in on what Rob and I talked about, I can’t wait to hear from you, make sure to shoot me an email at Brandon@podcastingonaplane.com GOOOOOOD DAY! -BG Related Links:Rob’s Article in FLYING Magazine: https://www.flyingmag.com/story/news/atlas-air-pilots-somatogravic-illusion-reaction/ NTSB’s videoBoard’s abstract of the investigationPlaneEnglish ATC Simulator - Get 10% off with code: deltaSupport: https://www.patreon.com/podcastingonaplane Buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/BravoGolfInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastingonaplane/Twitter: podcastonaplaneWebsite: www.podcastingonaplane.com Music by: Damma BeatzMake sure to use good equipment!Bose Headset: https://amzn.to/2FFaKjN Bose ProFlight: https://amzn.to/2VZAJrP Lightspeed Sierra Headset: https://amzn.to/2suAqYA Lightspeed Zulu 3 Headset: https://amzn.to/2RPGg5i David Clark: https://amzn.to/2FE3y7r
Will Kool joins us this episode to discuss how he got into aviation and how in his quest to achieve this dream of flying, took him to many places around the country and to many different jobs, so aviation some not. He also goes on to discuss his unique perspective of the COVID-19 virus, since his spouse is a medical doctor. Will goes on to give some advice on what aviation resources he uses to stay in contact with his aviation communities such as: Women in Aviation, OBAP, NGPA, AOPA and Flying Magazine. He also uses Ravencareers.com as a news reference as well. Captain Kool also discuss some prudent financial thoughts to consider during these trying times, for those that are already in aviation, such as, ‘don’t make career decisions based off of speculation’. Will also discusses some other matters such as trying to stay current on your aviation reading as well as what aviation movies and books have been on his mind, while he has been at home.

This is the Crime Cafe, your podcasting source of great crime, suspense, and thriller writing. I'm your host, Debbi Mack. Before I bring on my guest, I'll just remind you that the Crime Cafe has two ebooks for sale: the nine-book box set and the short story anthology. You can find the buy links for both on my website DebbiMack.com, under the “Crime Cafe” link. You can also get a free copy of either book if you become a Patreon supporter. You'll get that and much more if you support the podcast on Patreon, along with our eternal gratitude for doing so. Debbi [00:01:02]: Hi, everyone. Today, our guest is a writer with one of the coolest jobs anyone on the show has had. He's an airline pilot, and his proverbial second act is as a crime writer. Author of the novel, Paper Wings, it's my great pleasure to have with me today, Les Abend. Hi Les, how are you doing today? Les [00:01:27]: I'm doing great, Debbi. Thank you for having me on. Debbi [00:01:31]: Well, thank you for being here. I wanted to touch on, first, your previous experiences in writing for the trade publication Flying Magazine. You weren't entirely a newcomer then to the world of writing and publishing before your novel came out, correct? Les [00:01:51]: That's correct. Yeah, I've been writing for Flying Magazine now as a columnist for, I guess, 18 years. So, yeah, I was familiar with writing stories—the stories I write for Flying Magazine are a little bit different. They're actual experiences and I just try to convey some insight to the general public, to the ‘flying' public and more particularly, to general aviation pilots. Debbi [00:02:16]: Mm, that's very interesting. So, the audience for that magazine is general aviation pilots? Les [00:02:23]: For the most part, unless you include mom and dad. So, yeah. Debbi [00:02:28]: (chuckles). And do you write about your experiences as a pilot? Les [00:02:30]: I do, I do. And often times, you know, if it's not my experiences, it's other folks' experiences or something that I'd like to highlight about the industry. But primarily, my experiences. Debbi [00:02:40]: That's really fantastic. It was a great training ground for you, I would think. Les [00:02:46]: It was and honestly—this is sort of a segue to where I get to the book—the objective was for me to get some notoriety so I could move forward with a novel, which has always been a goal of mine since I was young. And I sort of got sidetracked with Flying Magazine; you know, I'd send in some unsolicited articles and so on and so forth. And the editor-in-chief was looking for somebody at that very time, so it worked out very good and he wanted me to continue. He said, “most airline pilots can only write one article. I'll tell you what, if you can write another one, you might have a little bit of a future”. And well, the rest is history, so I'm very grateful. Debbi [00:03:34]: Well, it's really fantastic and it's a wonderful demonstration, kind of like a case study of how one person got into writing a book for publication. Because you've trained yourself through writing these stories for the magazine. Something for people to think about, I think. Les [00:03:56]: It's been very helpful and it's been a great experience. And actually, the most gratifying thing to me, as probably you as a writer and screenplay writer, is that somebody enjoys it or somebody is motivated to move forward. With my career, some of the best moments I've had is somebody taking me aside and saying, “because of you and the columns that you presented, I moved ahead with my career as an airline pilot”, so that's very gratifying to me. "And actually, the most gratifying thing to me, as probably you as a writer and screenplay writer,

We’re both pilots. We’re both controllers. We both create aviation media. This one was fun! Today on the Show. What happens when a couple of guys with a double sided long view get together and start talking shop about something important to them? Well, we have a lot of fun talking shop actually. And I think you’ll learn a lot about how things are done when it comes to ATC training, and operating at busy general aviation airports. So, a little about Rob.

Remember last time how we talked about how the whole privatization battle was more or less over for the time being, but that it’ll be back again sooner or later... well literally minutes before I sat down to record this episode, I got a Tweet from my friend Rob over at Flying Magazine and he just wrote a little piece about how ATC reform is still very much something that’s in the White House’s plan.Flying Story by Rob: https://www.flyingmag.com/atc-privatization-its-backPlus!I help Ben with some advice about making better takeoffs and landings.Support: https://www.patreon.com/podcastingonaplaneYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx1DKOUuGxohHU5YxEC_w0w?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastingonaplane/Twitter: podcastonaplaneWebsite: www.podcastingonaplane.com Music by: Danijel Zambo

Il s’agit d’un des compétiteurs du Falcon 5X dont nous discutions lors de l’épisode précédent.Nous discuterons plus particulièrement de deux innovations majeurs de ce programme : le tableau supérieur (overhead en anglais) tactile et le système fly-by-wire doté de mini-manches couplés mécaniquement. Pour plus d’informations, vous pouvez consulter l’article de Flying Magazine au sujet de cet avion et l’article d’Airways Magazine au sujet des mini-manches.Les photos du Gulfstream G500 sont disponibles dans la description de l'épisode.Rubrique thématiqueComme présenté en introduction, nous discutons avec Jeff de son expérience en tant qu’instructeur de vol et du processus pour devenir pilote privé. Voici la liste des questions posées à Jeff : Est-ce que tu peux te présenter et nous expliquer le parcours qui t’a amené à devenir instructeur de vol ? Pour toi, est-ce que c’était un choix de faire instructeur de vol ou est-ce que c’était plus une manière de commencer à travailler dans l’aviation de manière concrète ? Plus jeune, qu’est ce qui t’a amené à t’intéresser à l’aviation ? Avant de commencer la prépa et l’ENAC, quel était ton expérience aéronautique ? Comment s’est déroulée ta formation FI et qu’est ce que ça représente en terme de difficulté ? Une fois la qualification FI obtenu, comment as-tu trouvé un aéroclub ? Que recherchais-tu exactement ? Tu as commencé en tant que bénévole ou as-tu réussi à trouver un emploi salarié ? Qu’est ce que ça fait de se retrouver pour la première fois avec un élève dans le cadre d’une leçon d’instruction ? Peux-tu nous décrire le déroulement d’une séance typique d’instruction ? Quelles sont les avantages et les inconvénients de voler à partir d’un terrain contrôlé ? Quels sont, selon toi, les critères importants pour le choix d’un aéroclub ? Supposons le cas d’une personne qui se retrouve à devoir choisir entre deux aéroclubs équivalents mais avec des avions école différents. Est-ce que pour toi ca a une importance et quels sont les critères qui peuvent permettre de choisir entre les deux ? As-tu déjà un peu de formation sur avions à train classique ? Peux-tu nous décrire le déroulement d’un vol d’examen PPL et plus particulièrement les compétences théoriques et pratiques qui sont évaluées ? As-tu repris des élèves en cours de formation ou as-tu pris des élèves qui débutaient de zéro ? Quel type de public as-tu rencontré en aéroclub ? Quelles étaient les motivations des gens pour se lancer dans une aventure potentiellement longue et compliquée comme un PPL ou un LAPL ? Est-ce que ça change quelque chose de commencer à apprendre à piloter en tant plus âgé ? Selon ton expérience, quelles sont les principales difficultés rencontrées par les élèves pendant la formation PPL ? En tant qu’instructeur, comment gères-tu un élève qui aurait une difficulté particulière au cours de la formation ? Quels sont tes meilleurs souvenirs d’instruction ? As-tu gardé des contacts avec tes anciens élèves ? Continuent-ils à voler ? Quels conseils aurais-tu pour quelqu’un qui veut se lancer dans un PPL ou un LAPL ? Le musée évoqué par Jeff dans l’interview est le musée de l’aviation Clément Ader.ConclusionMerci d’avoir écouté le quatrième épisode de Parlons Aviation. J’espère que cet épisode vous a plu.

There is whining in aviation, Jet Whining that is. This week, the SimpleFlight Crew welcomes Rob Mark to the show. If there happens to be anyone that doesn't know Rob by name, we can say confidently, you've come across him in a very diverse set of aviation circles. Rob is the Senior Editor at Flying Magazine and also edits the award-winning, aviation insiders blog Jetwhine.com, the editorial podcast The Aviation Minute, and co-produces the weekly aviation radio show, The Airplane Geeks. Each summer, Rob co-hosts “Attitude Adjustment,” a daily radio show at EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh. And if that isn't enough, Rob is a regular aviation news contributor to Fox News, WGN-TV and CNN, having also served as an aviation news analyst for CBS, NBC, PBS, the BBC and a number of national radio outlets. Had enough? But wait, there's more. He is an Airline Transport Rated pilot type-rated in a number of business jets and has logged nearly 7,000 flying hours in the airline, Part 135 and Part 91 environment. He holds a current airplane, instrument and multi-engine flight instructor certificate and even spent 10 years as an air traffic controller and supervisor with the FAA. All this makes for a great show for #avgeeks of all persuasions. Tune in for some relaxed hangar flying with Rob, Rhonda, and Marc! =============== We hope you enjoy listening as much as we love talking to others who share our passion for aviation. Let us know what you think! BLUE SKIES and TAILWINDS!!!
ATC Privatization On June 22, 2017, the U.S. House of Representatives released H.R. 2997, the AIRR Act, calling for the privatization of Air Traffic Control in the U.S. Later, both EAA, the Experimental Aircraft Association, and NBAA, the National Business Aviation Association, issued an urgent call for members to contact their representatives in Congress to oppose ATC privatization. AOPA, the Aircraft Owner and Pilots Association, also sent a call for their members to contact their representations just before we published this show, which is why we weren't able to mention them in the podcast. Please take action by going to govt.eaa.org to generate a letter to your representatives in Congress. Please support my show by checking out my new Patreon Page. You will ultimately find lots of free posts on the page. To kick things off, I just posted a pdf of the Delta Airlines study on privatization, which you can download and read for free now. I've also posted results of an ATC Privatization survey of US pilots conducted of Airplane Geeks podcast listeners in February 2017. Please consider supporting my show with contributions of as little as $2 per month, also at my Patreon page. Today, I’m devoting this entire episode to privatization. I’ll be playing audio clips from the President, members of Congress, Airline CEOs, EAA CEO Jack Pelton, and from pilots in other countries that have privatized their air traffic control system. I’ll also share results of a survey of pilot podcast listeners on privatizing ATC. And to help me, I'm joined by Senior Editor of Flying Magazine, Rob Mark. You can Dictate a listener question from your phone and I’ll try to answer it on a future show, or send an email.
