Lol, Do you guys really think I don't know what Tarmacadam is?
Season 3, Episode 12
I'm sure my fellow pilots know what I'm talking about... Sometimes they can be hard to find, because they're so fleeting in retrospect, but the media gets some pretty basic things wrong about aviation in their news reports. Even the aviation experts they hire sometimes defy reason. Here's a compilation of some of the most irritating mistakes that I've seen the media make about aviation. What's the worst one that you guys have seen?
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.
