Mindy & Kevin share anonymous aviation stories! In this episode they talk about how they had their own Captain John Doe experience on an overnight stop in Belen, NM, then they hear how a listener and his student got a private airshow in the practice area from two A10 warthogs nearing colliding with them midair, and finally they learned about a scary story which turned out to be a fun experience for their passengers when they ran into a flock of geese while doing a Christmas light flight.
