  • It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...Milly the Microlight Pilot

    Amellia Formby, Zoologist turned Pilot, has set off on an epic adventure around Australia to follow and study Migratory Shorebirds. Milly's story is a wonderful example of dedication, determination and perseverance and whilst as a Pilot she explains that the weather is most often, never on your side, we are grateful a little bit of gusty wind has blown her into our studio and given us the opportunity to be able to sit down and chat with Milly about her seven year journey in aviation so far. We can guarantee that you'll switch off this episode with knowledge you didn't think you needed, including the planning involved to fly around the country!

  • Beers VS Safety - How Shannon's Pre Flight Routine Blunder Almost Cost Him His Life
    Pilot error is the most common cause of aircraft crashes yet the human factors subject whilst commencing flight training is so often deemed as ‘not as important’ compared to other parts of training. Chief Pilot, Shannon Samarasekera shines a light on the importance of human factors in this episode through a story of his own that he used to be very embarrassed to tell, but has now come to the realisation that opening up and being honest about your mistakes could just save someone else’s life. We hope this episode is a reminder to never get lazy with your routine checks and that looking after your own mental & physical health should be top priority ALWAYS.

  • No Plan Is the Best Plan
    What's the biggest thing we've learnt building North Queensland's Premier flying School? Find out in this episode....Georgie was proud to have been able to interview her Dad and Owner of Townsville Helicopters, Townsville Flight Training, ZephAir Australia & Aviatrix Australia about the lessons he has learnt whilst creating a flight school from scratch. With life in the aviation industry being so fast paced, it was wonderful for them both to be able to slow down, sit, chat & reflect on everything their family has gone through together including enormous amounts of hard work, lonely nights, long distance and even...grizzly bears? There have been many bumps, twists and turns along the way but they wouldn't change a thing. From a little tug at the heart strings to flight radar rivalries this episode holds many golden gems that Georgie is stoked to have been able to catch on record. Aviatrix Airwaves wouldn't exist without Richard Arnold so we are grateful to be able to dedicate an episode to him (with hopefully many more to come).

  • What's the next step?
    Physiotherapist, Sports Scientist, Coach? Whilst our Aviatrix airwaves Host Georgie, grew up in the aviation industry, she didn't expect it to be her full time career. Throughout school there was no clear vision as to what was going to be her 'next step' in fact, the only thing she did know, was that she had a passion for business....or was it just being in charge? In this episode, Georgie flies deep into her personal life, touching on challenges she's faced and golden moments that have occurred to explain how she found her passion, turned it into a project and reminds us of the importance of 'letting your why shine.'GET SOCIAL: IG, Facebook, linkedin - @aviatrix_australiaYour Host: IG - @georgie_arnold Tik Tok - @georgiearnolddd Contact: [email protected] www.aviatrix.com.au Help out Aussies in Rural & Remote Communities: https://www.flyingdoctor.org.au/donate/
