The New Pilot PodBlog Ep #05 - My First Anniversary

Happy Holidays!

In this episode I look back at my first year as a new private pilot and forward to my second year. It has been an interesting first year for me. I have changed flight schools, got checked out in a new plane, started new training and introduced my 14 year old son to aviation. Heck, I even started a podcast.

As good as my first year was, I am looking forward to next year as I continue reaching my goals and experiencing new things.


Thanks for listening and  Happy New Year.

Blues skies everyone!

The New Pilot PodBlog Ep #04 - The Scenic Route

In this episode I discuss another flight with Joey. How fuel flowing from a wing tip is not a bad thing, alternative plans and how to get flight following on a sight-seeing flight.

I also get caught by my instructor when I make a non-standard departure.

Please join me as I take you on another fun flight where I learn a few things by myself and with the help of others.
