Rank #1: Student Pilot Journal Podcast #2.
First Flying Lesson!No video yet, but I was able to record some audio from the flight. I had to edit a lot of it and some of the audio may sound rushed. I cut out the dead space where we did not talk so I could provide a decent sample with minimal dead air. Here is a brief summary of what we covered:Pre-flightChecklistsTraffic Pattern OperationsRadio CommunicationsTakeoff and Climb proceduresStraight and level flightShallow turnsClimbs and descentsFlight at varying airspeedsNormal approach and landingRecording the audio is a huge help. I have been listening to it all day and making notes when I hear something that I need to remember or work on. My next lesson is this Saturday and I will be getting some video this time with my new Sticky Pod Dash. Yippee!-GregDownload the Video Podcast

SimpleFlight Radio

Welcome to the SimpleFlight Radio show! We are here to help you define your personal aviation lifestyle. We've got the tips, pilot hacks and introductions to the people who give their aviation secrets.

Rank #1: VMC into IMC January 26th, 2014.
When tonight's scheduled guest had an unexpected and unavoidable issue come up preventing her from being on the show, Al and Marc had to pick up their scan and focus on aviating the show for the full two hour schedule.  No problem for these two #avgeeks, who always have something to say about general aviation.Listen in as the show kicks off with a great debate about a pass or fail check ride scenario brought to light by the guys at BoldMethod (www.boldmethod.com).  Would you pass the applicant?The rest of the show was a random stream of consciousness covering everything from the impossible turn, when to pull the chute, flight sims, aviation maintenance scholarships, and whether a stick shaker played a role in the Aspen Challenger crash.Wishing all of you, strong tailwinds and blue skies!

Rank #2: The VFR Bandit - Unmasked, August 19, 2018.
Some of our listeners may have heard the SimpleFlight crew refer to the "VFR Bandit".  That moniker was earned by Adam Hirsen, a Chicago entrepreneur that used General Aviation to fly around the country for business.  Not so unusual, until you understand that Adam had not completed his IFR training, so his frequent long trips all were made VFR.  And as the legend goes, he never had to cancel. How does that happen?  That's what we wanted to know, and so Adam joins us on this episode to dispel the myth, or tell us how he pulled it off.  For the record, Adam has earned the right to move on from that title, as he recently earned his IFR ticket, which is a story in and of itself.  Listen in as Adam takes us through his experiences conducting business, while training for what we all know as one of the toughest GA ratings that can be earned.  It's sure to be a great conversation and look forward to you joining us.  As with all SimpleFlight discussions, there is much to be learned from our fellow pilots. ​​​                            =============== ​We hope you enjoy listening as much as we love talking to others who share our passion for aviation.  Please subscribe to the Podcast via iTunes or your favorite broadcast source, and rate, review, and let us know what you think! ​ ​​​​BLUE SKIES and TAILWINDS!!!
