Welcome to a special edition of the podcast live from AOPA Fly-In 2017 in Tampa, Florida. Carl was on assignment in conjunction with Sun N Fun Radio. The Fly-In was a fun and informative event held at one of Carl’s favorite airports Peter O. Knight airport.

This airport is where Carl began his aviation career and you will hear his excitement about returning to his roots. The weather was wonderful and as you will hear in the interviews everyone was excited to attend. This was two days and had over 339 airplanes and an estimated 5,478 attendees.
