Episode 6 of The Private Pilot Podcast

Hi All!


Well, this is episode #6, so we're doing well. Before I go into the episode though I would like to say a hello to Len of the Flying Pilot Podcast. He has posted his latest one and I recommend you check it out!


So on to this episode.


Lots of things going on. I tell you a bit about night flyin, then some about an airport called Grove City, and then you get to meet Emmett Plant, who joined me on my recent Night Recurrency flight, and you get to hear the cockpit recording from that flight.
In the Next Episode we will talk about Airbus,and possibly I will give you a view on flying as a passenger as I fly back from Sweden.
Until then, keep flying!

The 5th Podcast with special interview!



Hello to my loyal listeners!





Ok, so this is the one you have been waiting for! I had the opportunity to attend the AOPA's Fly-In on June 2nd in Frederick, Maryland. While there I was fortunate enough to get to conduct a very special interview and it is my pleasure to bring it to you here as part of this podcast.



The person you see in the picture standing next to me (I'm the one with the hat) is Erik Lindbergh. He is the grandson of Charles Lindbergh and the spokesperson for the AOPA's Project Pilot.

The Latest Podcast!

Hi All!

Ok, here is a podcast that I finished editing on today.

The next one will follow quickly on the heels of this one, and likely be up later this week.
This episode I discuss the Fokker Aircraft Company and interview airline pilot who is also a CFI.

For my next Episode I will be letting you all take a peek into the AOPA Expo. Got two short interviews, and therefore I will taylor my History portion toward the second one. I will give you a History of "The Spirit of St. Louis". That's right ;) You guessed it! I got an interview with Erik Lindbergh! Check back in a few days. Until then, here is the latest episode!

Sorry for the delay, just two more days.

Ok....wow....It's been a while. I do have an update. Due to a flight not happening, the really cool program I though I would get up won't happen yet, but rather toward the end of Summer. Instead, I will upload what I do have tomorrow and follow it by another one shortly there after.

The next pocast will be a brief history of the Fokker Company and an interview with Dave A., who is a CFI, CFII, MEI and ATP and currently flies for an Airline as a First Officer. He is a graduate of Embry-Riddel and a good pilot.

The Podcast after that will likely be from the AOPA Expo in Frederick, MD which is coming up this weekend, assuming nothing changes in my plans.

Happy flying!
