Talking about money can be hard for some people, and sometimes it just takes the right question to get things rolling. Ryan goes over a few today that he thinks are worth asking. None of these questions are really about money. That's kind of the point. Sometimes the best way into a financial conversation is to start somewhere else entirely. Here's what we cover in this episode:

An Israel-bound flight with about 170 people on board has landed safely in Saudi Arabia after a fight broke out between pilots, triggering a hijacking alert. Two Israeli officials said the co-pilot is believed to have stabbed the captain and tried to crash the plane. Officials from Tabuk airport, where the Flydubai flight landed, say they are being treated in hospital. Also; Russia has carried out another massive overnight attack on Ukraine's Kyiv region, hitting energy infrastructure and residential buildings. President Zelensky says seven people have been killed and 24 injured across Ukraine in the latest drone and missile strikes. Africa's richest man has launched the construction of a giant oil refinery on Kenya's coast, describing it as a new chapter in the continent's industrial journey, and we find out the winner of the 2026 Fat Bear Week in Katmai National Park in Alaska, a contest in which 16 bears took part with two million votes cast from 100 countries around the world.

This episode: ETOPS flights could be impacted by the closing of an airport on a tiny South Pacific island. FAA rescinds Cessna Citation single-pilot exemptions. Heart Aerospace unveils the ES-36 hybrid-electric 30-seat regional commercial aircraft and JSX purchase agreement for up to 100 aircraft. A Congressman questions the FAA deployment of the Strategic Management of Airspace Routing Trajectories (“SMART”). The Air Combat Command Accident Investigation Board determined that incorrectly positioned variable vanes caused the F-16 crash in December 2025. A Boeing 737 MAX software glitch could disrupt a navigation feature. Boom Supersonic loses the launch customer for their land-based Superpower stationary powerplant. And pilots are accused of being in a “club” of furry fetishists. Aviation News Midway Atoll's Airport Has No Flights, But Its Closure Could Disrupt Airlines Worldwide Midway Atoll Airport (MDY) in the South Pacific, also known as Henderson Field, is a public airport on Sand Island. Midway Atoll is a 2.4-square-mile unincorporated territory of the United States. With a 7,800-foot runway, the airport primarily serves as an emergency diversion point for transpacific flights. The DOT estimates that the airport needs at least $100 million to stay certified. The Airline Dispatchers Federation (ADF) opposes closing Midway Atoll Airport because it will affect airline operations across the Pacific. ETOPS ratings (“Extended-range Twin-engine Operations Performance Standards) apply to twin-engine jets and specify how many minutes a plane is allowed to fly on a single engine to get to the nearest suitable diversion point. The FAA grants approval for each airframe-engine combination and again to each operator, based on its maintenance and dispatch program. The ETOPS rating process is informal. The FAA grants two separate approvals, one for the design and one for the operator, and both are needed before an airline can fly a route: Type design approval (Aircraft Certification Service) The manufacturer shows that a specific airframe-and-engine combination is suitable for extended diversions. It involves: Design and systems review. The FAA assesses ETOPS-significant systems such as fuel, electrical, hydraulic, APU, cargo fire suppression, and pressurization for redundancy and their ability to keep working through the maximum diversion time, including time-limited systems. Propulsion system reliability. Assess in-flight shutdown (IFSD) rates and the engine’s overall service record. For new engine/airframe combinations without an in-service history, an early or accelerated ETOPS relies on design assessment, testing, and a demonstrated reliability program instead of accumulated fleet hours. The Configuration, Maintenance, and Procedures (CMP) document defines the required airplane configuration, maintenance tasks, and operating procedures that an ETOPS-approved airplane must follow. Operational approval (Flight Standards) Type design approval doesn’t let any airline fly ETOPS routes. Each operator must be authorized through its FAA certificate-holding district office (CHDO). The airline must show that it can: Maintain the airplane to the CMP standard, with an ETOPS maintenance program, ETOPS-qualified maintenance personnel, and procedures such as verifying critical systems after work and monitoring reliability. Dispatch properly, including selecting ETOPS alternate airports with suitable weather and services, and planning for time-limited systems, fuel, and diversion scenarios. Train crews and dispatchers on ETOPS procedures. Conduct a validation process, which for new operators or new airplane types may include proving or validation flights. The FAA conducts ongoing oversight and monitors IFSDs and other events that could affect ETOPS. It can restrict or revoke an approval if reliability degrades. For detailed ETOPS information, including EDTO (Extended Diversion Time Operations), see How Do Planes Fly Over the Pacific? (ETOPS Explained) from Aeruxo – Flight Ops Insights. FAA Rescinding Cessna Citation Single-pilot Exemptions The FAA is rescinding exemptions that allow some Part 25-certified Cessna Citation jets to operate with a single pilot. The exemptions date back to 1984 and had been based on a lack of data showing any negative impact. The FAA’s decision is based on an 18-year review indicating that older Citation jets operated by a single pilot have a significantly higher accident rate than other models. Also, investigations revealed issues such as incomplete training records and unauthorized use of training devices among exemption holders. The ruling is effective September 28, 2026, and affected pilots must operate these aircraft with a qualified second-in-command. Pilots who previously held single-pilot exemptions will lose their privileges.  The FAA has been issuing single-pilot exemptions for transport-category CE-500 variants for over forty years, starting with Exemption No. 4050 to Cessna in 1984. The eight variants covered are the 500 (Citation and Citation I), 550 (Citation II), S550 (S/II), 552 (Navy T-47A), 560 (V and Ultra), 550 Bravo, 560 Encore and Encore+. The exemptions went to training providers, who issued single-pilot logbook endorsements. Heart Unveils ES-36 With JSX Order In Episode 898, our guest was Heart Aerospace co-founder and CEO Anders Forslund. We talked about the ES-30, a hybrid-electric 30-seat regional commercial aircraft the company is developing. Heart just unveiled the 36-seat ES-36 with an additional 1,415 pounds of payload capacity. Maximum takeoff weight and battery capacity remain the same, and the plane now employs two series-hybrid electric powertrains. The changes result from Heart's experience flying the X1 demonstrator aircraft. JetSuiteX, Inc. (or JSX) charters a 30-seat Embraer regional jet that is operated by a subsidiary and then resells seats on that aircraft to the public. It offers point-to-point flights in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Texas, Utah, and Baja California Sur in Mexico. JSX's agreement converts a 2023 letter of intent into a deposit-backed purchase commitment and secures early delivery positions for the carrier. See also, press release: Heart Aerospace Unveils ES-36 with JSX Purchase Agreement for Up to 100 Aircraft Beyer Calls For Suspension Of AI System Deployed By FAA At Washington Area Airports In a press release, U.S. Representative Don Beyer (D-VA) says, “The FAA should not use my constituents as guinea pigs for an unproven AI air traffic control system.” He was referring to the FAA's deployment of the Strategic Management of Airspace Routing Trajectories (“SMART”) system to manage flights at Washington area airports. Beyer cited uncertainty among regional residents about air safety, and the lack of public awareness about the change. Air traffic controllers were also neither consulted nor trained, and airlines “were privately ‘panicking' about the hasty implementation of this system.” Beyer serves as co-Chair of the bipartisan Congressional Artificial Intelligence (AI) Caucus. His Northern Virginia district includes Ronald Reagan National Airport (DCA). ‘Misaligned' fan blades, loss of thrust caused Thunderbird F-16 crash The F-16CM aircraft that crashed on Dec. 3, 2025, in California was powered by a Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-229 turbofan. The pilot was rejoining the formation after a vertical loop/barrel roll sequence when the engine stalled. The pilot described it as “the jet just… stopped midair.” He fought the aircraft for roughly four minutes, then ejected at under 500 ft AGL. The Air Combat Command Accident Investigation Board [PDF] determined the mishap was caused by three misaligned or turned variable vanes in the engine’s 4th and 5th stages, which caused a 5th-stage compressor blade and a 6th-stage compressor blade to fracture and separate, resulting in catastrophic engine damage at low altitude with no ability to recover. The aircraft had a documented foreign object damage (FOD) event years earlier (2021, per Common Defense’s reporting) that produced damage in the 1st stage on three separate occasions, plus recovered foreign material at the 4th stage (paracord). Because the visible damage was upstream and nothing was seen in the sections preceding the 5th/6th stage core, that area was never inspected and the investigators concluded the FOD “substantially contributed” to the mishap by leaving a latent path for the vane misalignment to develop undetected.

Boeing flags 737 MAX software glitch: reports The software glitch identified can prevent pilots from accessing an automated navigation feature when they change their planned flight path after a missed approach. Pilots have been notified, and Boeing is working on a software update. The Air Current reports that the software issue emerged nearly two years ago. Boeing “was alerted by a customer in November 2024 to the potential issue affecting 737 models with flight management computer (FMC) updates U14 and 14.1… When a pilot alters their preprogrammed flight path following a missed approach, the FMC may transition from vertical navigation (VNAV) mode to a simpler level of automation for pitch control.” Crusoe abandons $1.25B plan to use Boom turbines at AI data centers In Episode 874, we looked at Boom Supersonic's plan to develop the land-based Superpower stationary powerplant as a derivative of its Symphony engine, generating a revenue stream to fund Boom's other operations. We cited reports that Crusoe Energy, an AI data center startup, had 29 Superpower units on order, valued at $1.25 billion, with delivery expected in 2027. Crusoe has now announced it will not pursue a deal with Boom. Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl posted on X his congratulations to Crusoe on their latest funding round, and: “Also wanted to let everyone know Crusoe and Boom are no longer launching our Superpower turbine together. The TL/DR is that turbines are no longer part of Crusoe’s near term primary power mix at Abilene/etc., so a launch partnership just didn’t make sense.” Further, “Boom will be delivering about 250MW of Superpowers next year to other sites, and we’re targeting 1GW in 2028.” Trump ally Tuberville isn't kidding when he says US pilots are in a ‘club' of furry fetishists Senator Tommy Tuberville from Alabama claimed on the Senate floor that “many airline pilots, flight attendants and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community.” The International Anthropomorphic Research Project's Furscience website says “furries” are an anthropomorphic animal subculture. Members of this group adopt alter egos known as “fursonas” and wear “fursuit” costumes. Tuberville said, “We got a huge mental illness problem in this country, and we need to address it. We need to address it quick.” The IARP website says, “Furscience is the public face of the International Anthropomorphic Research Project (IARP), studying furries and their fandom and disseminating our evidence-based research to furries, the general public, scholars, and the media to increase understanding and decrease stigma.” Hosts this Episode Max Flight, our Main(e) Man Micah, Rob Mark, and David Vanderhoof.

What if the people who change your life are the ones who put you somewhere you have not earned yet? In this episode, Ethan Giffin, founder and CEO of the B2B eCommerce Agency, shares how losing every penny on a failed nightclub in his early twenties led to a chance encounter at a bar that relocated him, employed him, and changed his career trajectory entirely. Ethan now helps mid-market manufacturers and distributors build private buyer portals and open digital revenue channels that did not exist before. This conversation covers why customers quietly quit rather than slam the door, why he reports back to everyone who gives him advice, and what happened when he realized he had let himself get stuck.

Is America's $3.8 billion a year to Israel charity, or the best defense investment the United States makes? In this re-release of one of our most requested conversations, former Israeli Ambassador Yoram Ettinger joins Laurie Cardoza-Moore to answer the isolationists with the facts.He walks through intelligence valued at five CIAs, battle lessons that saved Lockheed Martin years of F-35 development, and the “unsinkable aircraft carrier” that spares America ships and divisions. He also explains why Iran's war on the “Great Satan” runs through Israel and reaches all the way to America's southern border. Recorded after the June 2025 Iran war, it's a clear case that standing with Israel is both a biblical duty and plain common sense.Find Ambassador Ettinger's research at https://theettingerreport.com.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!! We shared a bit about our street this week on socials, and the comments had one big request: "please dig deep on the community y'all have created on the pod." So hi! We get into when it all started, the little ways everyone shows up for each other.. plus the couples trip we just booked with THE neighbors (who we realized we've somehow never hung out with 1:1..) AND, if you want one place to start with YOUR street: host the street-wide barbecue. Before all that: do you remember the first time your parents embarrassed you in public?? Harrison has a convertible pickup memory, Alex genuinely cannot think of one, and all Jules could come up with was that Nori (Minich) wore a lot of brown LOL. Then Jules is back from New York with a story we're still processing: she caught her pilot LYING. Pilots need a full 8 hours of rest, hers fudged his timesheet, and someone caught it because the math didn't math. Rules are rules!! (No public shaming.. but a strongly worded DM is coming lol) On the home front: we are officially a couple who "padels" together, we're going BIG on Halloween because Tate APPROVED the skeletons, and Rocky is giving us 5 to 6 hour stretches since starting the nanny share. There's something to babies being busy and around other babies!! Plus our coffee GIVEBACK winner is announced (s/o Jetta.. enjoy Hattie's Coffee House in Whitestown, Indiana!!) and the next giveback is live: comment your favorite date night idea and we're treating one of you to it. Rapid fire: McDonald's says GLP-1 users are their next big opportunity?!, where's the first place you drove when you got your license, the big one: are you a rule follower or a rule breaker?!, handedness is decided in the WOMB?!, the most popular Uber Eats restaurant in America, ergodic theory, and Harrison's AI update: Meta launched Muse (and the rollout is a masterclass).

Soon-to-be former Senator Tommy Tuberville from the great state of Alabama is really concerned that his constituents are gonna end up on a flight piloted by some sexual deviant in a wolf costume

The dumbest Senator really thinks there is a big conspiracy of pilots who get their kicks by dressing up as cute animals, and by God, he's gonna do something about it

A very bad girl gets arrested, a judge allows the media back in the White House, another little genius pops up, a flyover freaks people out, an 11-year-old arrested for an e-bike situation, the Caleb Flynn case blows up, a man makes his wife do everything at a baseball game and so much more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DESCRIPTION One in eight airline pilots is depressed. More than half of us have avoided a doctor to protect our licence. This is why pilots stay silent, what it costs at home, and where to get help. This is A Pilot Explains: one story, sixteen minutes, told from the flight deck. We are trained to report every defect on the aircraft, and nobody trains us to report one on ourselves. This episode is for the men who fly you home tonight: the contract pilot who walks through his front door and gets looked at like a visitor, and the local pilot who is at the dinner table every evening and not really there. South Africa held a National Aviation Gender Summit last month, and that is real progress. There is no summit for the other 80%, so Bryan does the one thing nobody else has scheduled. IN THIS EPISODE The homecoming nobody talks about, on a long-haul contract or a local roster Why there is no summit for men, and the 120-year-old programme called wind your neck in and push on The Harvard survey: one in eight airline pilots depressed, one in 25 with thoughts of being better off dead The 2022 survey of 3,765 pilots: 56% have avoided a doctor to protect their medical certificate Why the licence is not a qualification but an identity, and why that keeps pilots quiet The Germanwings report, and the fear it named as a contributing factor Joseph Emerson: six years of hidden depression, the jump seat over Oregon, and what he said afterwards The family cost: what 300 pilots said about coming home, and the contract life nobody has studied South Africa's three airline closures, the Gulf job, and Bryan's own two years in a flat in Johannesburg The Gulf numbers: 68% severely fatigued, 45% asleep at the controls at least once What is changing: Europe's mandatory peer support, the FAA antidepressant list, and the real denial rate of one in 1,000 Mayday SA, the 24-hour peer support line for South African pilots, running since 2013 The one-line checklist: pick one person and say one true sentence I'm Bryan Roseveare. I was an airline captain. I still go to work on the flight deck. It's just a full flight simulator now, and the pilots I train are the ones who fly you around.

Getting an AI pilot to work is one thing. Scaling it across an organization and delivering measurable business value is another. In Episode 69 of Digitalization Tech Talks, Jonathan Alexander of Albemarle joins Don Mack and Cole Lewis to explain why promising AI initiatives often become trapped in “pilot purgatory.” From building scalable data foundations to balancing horizontal and vertical AI strategies, this conversation explores the people, processes, and technologies required to scale AI across manufacturing operations. If your organization is looking to move from isolated AI experiments to repeatable, enterprise-wide value, this episode offers practical insights to help you think big, start small, and scale fast.

Professional pilots can accumulate more than just 401(k)s, IRAs, Roth accounts, and brokerage accounts over the course of a career.Airline benefits can also include Health Reimbursement Arrangements, Retiree Health Reimbursement Arrangements, deferred compensation plans, market-based cash balance plans, Employee Stock Purchase Plans, and other employer-linked accounts that work differently from the accounts pilots manage directly.In this episode of Pilot's Portfolio, Timothy P. Pope, CFP® breaks down how these benefits fit into a broader financial plan. He discusses healthcare funding, spill cash, deferred compensation, employer risk, cash balance plans, discounted company stock, and how a small speculative “play account” can be kept separate from the assets doing the heavy lifting.The goal is to help professional pilots better understand what these accounts do, where they may create value, and how they may fit alongside the rest of the household portfolio.Get more insights and takeaways from this episode on our newsletter article!If you're enjoying Pilot's Portfolio and finding these conversations helpful, we'd really appreciate a 5-star review on your podcast platform of choice.

DESCRIPTION A retired teacher east of Johannesburg took a WhatsApp call from someone posing as South African Airways. Twenty minutes later, R1.2 million was gone. Pilots have a rule for exactly this. This is A Pilot Explains: one story, thirteen minutes, told from the flight deck. Rose knew the teacher's name, her ID number and the last time she flew, and she sent a link to an app that looked exactly like the real one. Nobody was tricked into being stupid. Somebody was given something to click and left alone with it. The same trap put Eastern Airlines Flight 401 into the Everglades in 1972 while three well trained pilots worked on a burnt-out light bulb. Bryan takes the four-step procedure pilots use for that exact problem and shows you how to use it the next time your phone rings. IN THIS EPISODE The WhatsApp call, the fake SAA app, and where R1,276,000 went in twenty minutes Why the scam felt personal, and the N3 speed fine message that came for Bryan's phone 17.47 billion spam calls and 8,000 data breaches: why the person on the line knows your ID number Eastern Airlines Flight 401: four minutes, two light bulbs, and nobody flying the aircraft Preoccupation: the word in the accident report, and why being absorbed feels exactly like being diligent The golden rule: one head up at all times Four steps to beat any scam: fly, confirm, checklist, decide Why the person who can confirm it is never the person who called I'm Bryan Roseveare. I was an airline captain. I still go to work on the flight deck. It's just a full flight simulator now, and the pilots I train are the ones who fly you around.

DESCRIPTION The engines roar, the nose lifts, and the runway falls away beneath you. The safest thing a pilot can do is the one thing passengers hate: not land. Here is the rule behind it, the night I broke it, and what the recorders show from the Miami 767 crash. This is A Pilot Explains: one story, twenty minutes, told from the flight deck. Every airline flies to the same rule: by 1,000 feet the aircraft is set up for landing or you go around, and nobody gets in trouble for it. In 2003, as a brand-new DC-9 first officer, Bryan flew into a dust storm at Bamako, ignored the captain's calls, and landed anyway because there were beers planned at 7:00. The aircraft forgave him. Then, number by number, the NTSB's recorder summary from the Boeing 767 freighter that ran off the end of Runway 30 at Miami on 6 September 2026 and killed five people on the ground. The investigation is open, and nothing here is based on any official finding. IN THIS EPISODE What a go-around feels like from the cabin, and why it is planned before every landing The stabilized approach: the five things that must be right at 1,000 feet Bamako, 2003: the dust storm, the captain's calls, and the approach Bryan should have abandoned Why getting away with it teaches you exactly the wrong lesson How fast a runway runs out: 10% too fast costs 20% more runway, a 10-knot tailwind costs 21% Miami, 6 September 2026: the wind, the runway, and the NTSB recorder timeline second by second Why 97 out of 100 unstable approaches still land, and the one sentence in the FAA report that explains it Plan continuation bias, and the two lines every pilot has to watch across a career Two pilots, one rule: why the decision is taken out of your hands at the exact moment you cannot make it Airline safety in 2025, South Africa's roads, and why Africa has the world's highest runway excursion count Rules written in blood, and the promise the 1,000-foot rule makes to you The NTSB preliminary report is due in October, and Bryan will take you through it I'm Bryan Roseveare. I was an airline captain. I still go to work on the flight deck. It's just a full flight simulator now, and the pilots I train are the ones who fly you around.

In the remote Pacific, emergency medical transport is not a simple call away. Across hundreds of miles of open ocean separating island communities, sudden illness or severe injury can quickly become fatal without rapid intervention.Pacific Mission Aviation pilots Mark Abbott and Brock Welge operate on the front lines of remote search-and-rescue and critical medevac flights, serving remote island peoples.The Christian nonprofit's mission is to provide free emergency evacuations, rescue and disaster relief, medical and food supplies, and even educational resources across Micronesia and the Philippines.In this episode, Abbott and Welge walk me through the unique reality of aviation in the remote Pacific.

And what drew them from working in corporate America to serving remote island communities?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
