In this episode we talk with Rob Williams- his curled mustache and amazing flying skills can be seen in our weekend air shows. His experience and history involves jets and more!

He is an integral part of the structure that is our Aerodrome family and we are lucky to have him on board as one of our lead pilots.

Its been a minute but we are back with long time Aerodrome multi-tasker, Dan Taylor.

Hear about what drew him to the Aerodrome, his experiences with Cole Palen, Gordon Bainbridge, Dave Fox, Brian Coughlin and more.

There are so many "invisible" processes and decisions that go on behind the scenes. Today we talk about evolution of organizations, staying relevant, necessary change and why public support is so critical to our mission.

Mark and Tara have a chat from the shop. Learn about the challenges of being an A&P Mechanic on vintage aircraft that fly regularly, as well as what restoration projects have been going on this winter.

The Hanriot gets discussed in detail as well as what we are looking forward to for the upcoming season.

After capturing some old recordings of Cole for the last episode, creating this episode was a natural next step. Jim Hare was the core of the Aerodrome's magic for well over 30 years. His voice, his ability to tell a story, work off of the crowd and play with the show characters was like no other and we miss him terribly.

Here we have 3 clips of Jim talking about the Aerodrome. Enjoy!

So good we are releasing it early! Step back in time with this series of three clips. In this episode listen to Cole himself in 2 interviews. Also, listen to the audio from Cole's appearance on the popular game show "I've Got a Secret" in the late 1960's. You won't want to miss this opportunity to hear about the Aerodrome from Cole himself.

Dave King joins us to talk about growing up at the Aerodrome, watching his dad, Bill and uncle Dick King fly in the early days and more. Hear about his ground crew fun, his path to pilot, playing the Evil Black Baron and other stories and memories.

Our 1918 tank amazes visitors every time it rolls onto the runway during our show, but it is not for the faint of heart! Listen as Kurt Muller talks about restoring the tank and all it took (and takes) to keep it going!

In this episode Tara chats with John Barker, former Chief Pilot and leader of the Aerodrome. Hear about what inspired him to get into aviation, how he persisted with Cole to get hired at the Aerodrome and what it was like playing the Evil Black Baron of Old Rhinebeck.

John is a true story teller and a joy to listen to!

Get to know master craftsman and pilot Ken Cassens in this episode. Hear about his first meeting with Cole Palen, how he learned to fly and who he admires.

Ken built the Aerodrome's Spirit of St. Louis, the most accurate flying replica in the world. He is currently working on an Arup flying wing all at the young age of 81 (almost). He is a treasure.
