Stuck Mic AvCast - An Aviation Podcast About Learning to Fly, Living to Fly, and Loving to Fly!

There's a particular sound that fills the cockpit when the microphone key is held just a bit too long-a soft hum of shared connection and stories waiting to be told. That's the spirit captured in Stuck Mic AvCast, an ongoing conversation led by Carl Valeri and a seasoned crew of co-hosts including Victoria Neuville, Rick Felty, and Eric Crump. This isn't a sterile technical lecture, but a hangar-floor chat that spans the entire journey from that first spark of curiosity to a lifetime spent in the air. You'll hear from pilots like Tom Frick, Russ Roslewski, and Larry Overstreet as they dig into the real-world nuances of training, the unexpected challenges of cross-country flights, and the simple, enduring joy that keeps them returning to the runway. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair among friends who get it, discussing everything from gear and regulations to the philosophy of flight itself. Tune in for a podcast that celebrates every facet of aviation, where the passion is as clear as a controller's instruction and the stories are as varied as the skies above.
