Andrew starts by talking about one of the aspects of flying that causes the most nervousness: turbulence. Then, the main segment for this episode looks at airport codes. Should we be afraid of turbulence? While turbulence can be nerve-wracking even for frequent flyers, there isn't all that much to be worried about.

JFK, LHR, SYD – these airport codes clearly represent New York's JFK Airport, London Heathrow, and Sydney Airport. But these airports also have the codes of KJFK, EGLL, and YSSY. Why is this, what are these codes used for, and what do they mean? Find out more in this episode. Did you know that there's a single airport with three airport codes?

For so many people who learned how to fly, life gets in the way and puts the career or hobby on hold for an extended time. When time comes to get back in the cockpit, the challenge becomes one of polishing up those old, rusty skills again, and gaining confidence and proficiency. So what considerations should a rusty pilot make when looking to re-gain currency? Steve is joined by Chritian Bocousis, Owen Zupp and Paul "Simmo" Simmons in a roundtable discussion that covers many aspects of this often challenging issue. -- Steve Visscher - Producer (C) 2018 Aviator Media Pty Ltd australianaviation.com.au
