We discuss my three favourite questions that I constantly ask myself in an effort to maintain situational awareness and to stay ahead of the airplane and also talk about a recent flight in the mountains where we ditched the GPS and the tablet and went back to navigating "old school".

We share with you 2 big failures and 1 massive success. It involves copious amounts of beer and helicopters. Sometimes we have to remind ourselves what it is like to drink from the firehose and this week I did just that by taking a very humbling introductory helicopter lesson.
6/8/2020 0 Comments Flying BC Podcast: Helmets in Flight (Discussing Safety in Warbirds & GA Aircraft with Steve Thorne, Kevin Maher & Ryan VH)
"You know, it would be embarassing to get out of an upside-down SuperCub with a bent-up prop and a scuff on my helmet. But it would be better than not getting out and having to pull me out and waking up three months later with a brain injury." - Steve Thorne, Flight Chops
If you're a fan of Flight Chops on YouTube, you may have recently seen an episode about helmets and his first flight in the Harvard wearing one. On this episode of Flying BC I catch up with Steve for a follow-up now that he's flown with it a few more times. And I also bring Kevin Maher and Ryan VH on board to expand on the idea of whether we should be wearing helmets while flying. Even if you don't think you'll ever wear one, this episode has some great discussion about safety and survival that is worth a listen. (Also features Jeremy from TacAero's original story from Flight Chops) 6/6/2020 0 Comments Cardinal Aviation Audio Briefings Episode #29 (Weather Flying, Deviations & Block Altitudes)
