“Easy to listen to, A nice mix of flying stories and some technical details.
I also like the long form interviews where we get 4 or 5 hours from from one pilot about a single subject, ie the U 2.”

Thank you very much for inviting so many fascinating pilots and keeping it real. It is such a pleasure to listen to those and not having an explanation for every single technical terms.
Please keep on this great work.
