Eighty years of aviation experience between them, Tony and special guest Dr. Petitt discuss the real challenges in aviation safety today, how we got here, and where we can go to improve. Dr. Karlene Petitt, an international airline pilot, author, pilot advocate, and aviation safety subject matter expert (visit her website here), discusses the current state of aviation and why passionate instructors are critical to hand down foundational knowledge. Tune in to hear why pilots are getting half the training hours they used to, problems from overreliance on automation, and more about some aviation safety issues that have recently gotten more public attention but are definitely not new.
In this interview with author and airline pilot, Karlene Petitt, she talks about her book Flight for Control, the first in a 6-book thriller novel series that incorporates real-life scenarios and her own experience of being retaliated against by Delta Airlines for raising safety concerns.

Usually, the emotional climax of a murder trial comes at the end and begins with "we the jury." That will also be the case in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where a self-styled volunteer medic and peacekeeper is on trial for shooting three men

With Covid-19 being so front and center in everyone's mind, it's very common and appropriate to hear people sending wishes for safety and good health. Certainly, SimpleFlight wishes the same for you and yours. The path to getting to a healthier state, starts with a cultural change that now requires us to stand apart physically. Ironically, the desire to be safer, may also require a cultural shift. Brandon and Marc welcome back Karlene Petitt to SimpleFlight Radio. As an international airline pilot, author, pilot advocate and aviation safety subject matter expert, Karlene spoke to the crew about her doctoral research into the relationships between safety culture, pilot training, aircraft knowledge, aviation passion, and the impact of automation usage. The goal was to determine the root cause of performance issues. And unlike what we are used to hearing, it goes far beyond "pilot error". Listen in to this episode of SimpleFlight Radio, and hear first hand, the surprising results of her research. We enjoyed the conversation and hope you do too. We're interested to have you join the discussion with your opinion and any questions you have of the SimpleFlight crew. And at the same time, share your thoughts with the rest of the SimpleFlight Facebook and Instagram community @simpleflightradio Thanks for being a part of the SimpleFlight Family!!!
The Boeing 747 was launched in 1968, and United made its first commercial 747 flight in July 1970 with a trip from San Francisco to Honolulu. It was called the Friend Ship. On November 7, United Airlines will retire the "Queen of the Skies" on a farewell flight on the same route as her beginning. Other airlines are also retiring this iconic aircraft. Replaced by more efficient airplanes, it is doubtful that any aircraft flying today will replace the emotion and connected feeling that the 747 earned from pilot and passenger alike. The 747 in the 1970s was known not just for technological achievements but also for its glamour. With a lounge, cocktail service and sometimes even a piano, it held the promise of an elegant, relaxing travel experience. She didn't disappoint. This week's episode brings back a SimpleFlight Radio favorite, Karlene Petitt to chat with Marc and Rhonda about her experience as a pilot, trainer, and engineer in the 747. Join us and listen as Karlene helps us take a trip down memory lane, as we honor this magnificent and classy symbol of the promise of aviation. Karlene's Doctoral Research Site: www.petittaviationresearch.com =============== 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!!!

In this episode I talk with Kalene Petitt about using P3D for home training by air crews. Delving into safety, we talk about what can happen to some crews at some airlines when the crew alleges safety violations or reports safety concerns to the company. In Karlene's new book Flight For Sanity, Section 8 of Darby's union contract is used to sideline her for mental health analysis. How could something meant to prevent another GermanWings accident be used to sideline pilots? And what implications does this have for pilots who have legitimate mental health concerns? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nicnacjak/message
