I Thought Turkeys Could Fly - October 9, 2016


Listen Later

Who knew when we recorded our opening that it would someday serve as a lead in to our first story of the night. 

 

The quote is from the famous WKRP in Cincinnati episode where Station Manager, Arthur Carlson (played by Gordon Jump), arranged to have live turkeys dropped from a helicopter as an advertising stunt.  Needless to say, it was a bloody mess. 

 

Just prior to tonight's show, Marc was made aware that this "Turkey Drop" was more than just a story in some comedy writer's mind.  Deciding Karma was in play, Marc decided to open with this story.

 

Going solo tonight, Marc focused on a couple of educational topics that serve as a foundation for many a hangar flying session.  He's interested in what you have to say as well, so tweet us, or send Marc an email at [email protected].

 

Thanks for listening!  Until next week, wishing you Strong Tailwinds and Sunny Blue Skies!!!
