Caleb's Aviation Podcast: Patients to Pilots – Caleb & Byron Talk Flying & Overcoming Medical Challenges!

In this episode, I traveled all the way to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2025 — The World’s Greatest Aviation Celebration — to sit down with Byron Waller, better known as Teen Pilot Down Under on social media. Like me, Byron has faced significant medical challenges, but his passion for aviation has never wavered.We discuss his inspiring journey from overcoming health obstacles to becoming a pilot, plus his exciting future plans. I also share a bit of my own story — Byron and I have faced many similar challenges. This conversation is about more than just airplanes; it’s about resilience, determination, and pushing past life’s turbulence to reach new heights.Byron is currently flying with his instructor on his first circumnavigation of the world.

In this episode of my Caleb's Aviation Podcast I'd like to introduce you to the Deputy Director of Safety for the Naples Airport, Mr. Justin Lobb. (As of 2026, The Deputy Executive Director) I emailed with a contact of mine at The Naples Airport in Naples, Florida about conducting an interview with an aviation professional. To interview professionals to learn more about the people and the potential jobs that play a vital role in the aviation industry.

*My APOLOGIES FOR THE AUDIO ISSUES! I ADJUSTED IT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!*

Justin works at Naples Airport (KAPF) in beautiful #NaplesFlorida and has carried out his role for almost 10 years now. It was such a privilege to speak with Justin and learn more about his incredibly interesting job at one of the world's busiest airports for private jet operations, that being Naples Airport.

Also, when I return to Naples I will make an INSIDE AIRPORTS video part of my new series going behind the scenes and exploring the secretive world of airport operations! So definitely keep an eye on my YouTube Channel (Caleb's Aviation) for that video at some point soon..
