Episode 344 Show Notes

 

Topic of the show: The Benefits of Simulation in Aviation On this week’s show, AG and RH discuss how simulators played a part in both the flying side of the mic and the air traffic side of the operation.  For general aviation and aspiring controllers, there is a world of online simulation that can provide a practical and realistic training environment.  We also discuss vectors to final, coordination for departures off airports near a boundary, and more of your awesome aviation questions and feedback.  This is a fun episode and you don’t want to miss it!
