Season 1, Episode 26

Heather and I announce the subject of the next couple of episodes, a stage show called Foxtrot Delta Romeo, about the Gimli Glider, or Air Canada Flight 143, an homage to Charlie Victor Romeo. I also make my first ever soft field landing on a grass strip on Martha's Vineyard.

Hey, did you guys know that the FAA actually certifies flight instructors to tell you everything that I try to convey in these videos? You should definitely talk to one of them instead of trusting some video you found on the internet, because who am I to tell you how to fly? I'm just a pilot sharing my experiences with the world, and these videos are not meant to be instructional or advisory in any respect.
