21.FIVE - Professional Pilots Podcast
Leisure:Aviation
The guys dive into the intricacies and amusing challenges of aircraft lighting protocols. They humorously recount instances of "light shaming". We discuss chapter one of Hard Landing for the book club. In the mailbag segment topics range from the importance of different types of flying experience, to the impact of personal decisions and career changes post-furloughs. They highlight stories from pilots who have navigated the challenges of layoffs, transitions between airlines, and shifts into corporate flying, emphasizing resilience and adaptability in the aviation industry. Flight Advice: Phoenix-based commercial pilot seeking advice on how to best prepare for a future career with airlines or companies like NetJets.
