Customer Reviews
Great podcast
Your episodes are very well crafted. I'm in the NYC area and I did not think there were any pilots who commented on their flight experiences. Especially from KFRG. Your usage of LSA's are also a great idea to reduce the cost of flying. I hope to start training this summer and look forward to hearing further audio cast from you.
Nice
Great story teller would love to hear more.
A lot of fun
It's fun to listen to Robert talk about what he's been up to since passing his check ride. Lately he's been getting in to more exotic activities (like riding an Extra 300), but he typically doesn't stray too far from his new pilot roots. Topics like renting, flying LSA, bringing friends and family, and all the things that are on the mind of a new pilot are the domain of this friendly, enjoyable podcast.
