Ragnheiður Thorsteinsson hefur frá unga aldri verið heilluð af veiði. Hún hefur víða veitt, framleitt veiðiefni fyrir sjónvarp, sitið í skemmtinefnd og stjórn SVFR. Góður veiðimaður, skemmtilegur viðmælandi og sannarlega góð fyrirmynd fyrir konur í sportinu. Njótið, takið upp kampavínið en þó varlega því við tókum það ekki upp varlega.
Kæru kastarar! Farið er yfir stóru málin í þessum þætti. Allt frá nærri gjaldþrota stangaveiðifélagi til SVFR eins og það stendur í dag. Bjarni Júlíusson veiðimaður og fyrrverandi formaður SVFR fer yfir æskuna á Snæfellsnesi, leiðsögnina, ástina og formennskuna. Svo er það mál málanna. Veiða og sleppa? Vegna tæknilegra örðugleika var ekki hægt að setja veiðilagið sem Bjarni valdi í lok þáttar og biðjum við ykkur, og hann, velvirðingar á því. Við vitum samt að þið þekkið öll lagið og leyfið því að óma í höfði ykkar. Skál!
Jæja kæru kastarar. Eftir smá bið er komið að næsta þætti. Er það? Já. Ok. Það er enginn annar en heljarmennið Stjáni Ben sem er gestur þáttarins. Hann fer yfir sögu sína allt frá dópinu yfir í að ætla að sigra stangveiðiheiminn eða svona næstum því. Bloggið sem startaði öllu, árin í SVFR og fyrirtækin sem hann hefur stofnað eða komið á koppinn. Já, og svo líka krossfittið auðvitað. Þessi þáttur er sprengja, mikið hlegið, mikið talað og margt látið flakka. Búmmsjakalakka.
Jæja kæru kastarar. Þáttur vikunnar er langur og góður, Við fáum til okkar snilling sem er ekki bara stíflaður veiðimaður heldur er hann einnig formaður Stangaveiðifélags Reykjavíkur. Þetta er enginn annar en Jón Þór Ólason. Við förum yfir alla hans veiðisögu og komandi tíma hjá SVFR og lofum geggjuðum þætti. BÚMM

Episode 51 Show Notes Opening Chit Chat about snowpocolypse in the TRIAD area. Thank you, @avgeekandrew for the great picture. Topic of the show 5:42 “ER” asked about Special VFR: “There is one thing that is still a mystery: SVFR. WhenHow do you grant this magical clearance? What kind of magic do you possess to let me skim clouds in reduced visibility situations without the risk of hitting other things? How does ATC treat a SVFR aircraft?” AG and RH use the JO 7110.65X and the AIM to break down the topic and answer his questions. Check out this great article on SVFR from boldmethod. For the pilots out there, tell us who your aviation role model was before you made the leap and got your training? Was it a family member, movie star, or the pilot that flew your first commercial flight? Have a great week and thanks for listening!
