Got a solo coming up? Soloing an airplane is a thrill. It's the culmination of a lot of training and effort. At that point things really click, and for the first time you can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

But what is the process like?

In this podcast we will discuss:


    Why a congratulations are in order
    The Pre-Solo Written Test
    What you should be like as a solo pilot
    The traditional way the flight is done
    Things that happen after the flight


I know this solo flight will be a blast for you. I'm looking forward to hearing your stories.

Flying an airplane isn't inherently difficult. Learning to fly is fun, in fact. Anyone willing to put in the time and effort can become a pilot. But your first solo will just be so much fun, I know it!

New Year, New You, 2022, — AviatorCast 165 by Angle of Attack

Have you seen the classic movies series Rocky? It's incredibly motivational. What makes this story the most compelling of all is the wrestle with that inner struggle we all have -- pain vs gain.

When a pilot goes through flight training, self doubt, destructive inner voices, victimhood and excuses are abound. There are absolutely things that will get in your way, barriers to break through.

On this episode we'll pump you up with a round of motivation through those hard times. It's the old "when the going gets tough, the tough get going".

In this podcast we will discuss:


    Talk about Rocky! When you get “knocked down” in flight training, or your career
    How to “get up” How to “keep moving forward”


Come join for this fun-filled and motivational podcast.

    A recent medical event that had me out of action, the result of that medical event and how it relates to aviation
    The fear of the unknowing in aviation our duty as aviators

“Your Life in My Hands” A Lesson in Aviation Professionalism — AviatorCast 163

All too often I get student pilots that succumb to self doubt. That is, not believing they can make it through flight training or that they don't have what it takes. This is a VERY common occurrence that we all face, so we're going to tackle it head on in today's podcast.

In this podcast we will discuss:


    Enter the mind of a student pilot (you?) 
    Discuss the self doubt we all face
    The CFI Perspective on Student Progress 
    What to do with that self doubt


If you're going through self doubt of your own, you for sure need to listen to this episode.
