Episode 500 - Sim Ups and Downs
It's the 500th Simulator Special!
Well here we are! We finally made it. All the crew have been fully type-rated and signed off, paperwork has been checked, we've done our walk-around. Weight and balance checks are complete, all the waypoints are in the FMC, performance calcs verified, the ground run-ups have been done. We're pushing back and getting ourselves ready to line up on runway FIVE ZERO ZERO! Finally, here we are ready for take-off, on our great PTUK milestone.
It feels like this has been quite a while coming, and it's a big milestone for us to reach. Our podcast began way back on the 6th of November 2013 and since then the team has changed and grown, and we've been lucky enough become part of a wonderful aviation podcasting community, with friends all across the globe. We've done some amazing things, with highlights such as Wings over Pittsburgh in 2017, the Dubai Airshow in 2019 and not forgetting our 400th get-together at Brooklands. We've met some real aviation celebrities, and taken part in some wonderful events.
Our amazing support from you, our fabulous listeners, has allowed us to grown and continue, so it is with great pleasure that I present to you the PTUK team, and welcome you all onboard tonight for our terrific episode 500!

Customer Reviews

Cool I love youor. Pod cast
Dash-8
I love listening to your show and love you all. But I do strongly disagree about what you say about the Dash-8. An absolute lovely aircraft to fly in. I haven’t flown in a Q400 but the 200 and 300 have very good little vibration with its anti-vibration cabin technology, as opposed to the to the ATR, B1900, S340 only the Dornier 320 prop can compare. I absolutely love the Dash-8 it is my favorite aircraft I have flown on. Cheers
Opening music costs a star
Podcast is decent but the opening music is awful. It sounds like the practice backing track from one of those “Learn to play guitar” books. Repeating the same chords over and over for an excruciating 60 seconds. This is the UK, home to some of the greatest musicians to ever walk the earth like Pink Floyd. You can do better.
