  • 002 - Checklists on my mind

    So much of flying is about checklists. I have been surprised to learn just how many checklists you have to learn. Checklists about the fuel quality, the wings, checking the electrical system, checking the communications... And that's all BEFORE you even take off! I've been trying to think more about how to improve my checklist game.

    DISCLAIMER:

    I am a student of aviation, and a new one at that. Therefore, I make no claims to being an authority of any kind on the topics that I talk about. I am only speaking from my limited, biased perspective as a student who is learning and making mistakes. Therefore, none of what I say should be taken as fact or advice to be followed. Double-check me and let me know when I get it wrong.

  • 001 - What is a flying lesson like?

    Welcome to the first episode of this diary podcast I'm doing during my training to become a private pilot. I hope you enjoy listening along. 

    DISCLAIMER

    It should be noted that this is just one person's experience. This is not necessarily the experience of everyone getting their private pilot license. Also, I should probably go ahead and make the disclaimer that you shouldn't consider the things I say on this podcast to be fact or even good advice. I'm learning and recording these episodes as I am learning, and as such I cannot and will not guarantee in any way that I'm right about any of it. 

    Enjoy!
