Many of you have challenges when learning to fly or adding a rating. I encourage you to keep pursuing your wings and aviation goals. Today I have someone who has an inspirational message for you and knows how to overcome numerous challenges during the learning process. Keith Young is the author of "Expect Turbulence" an inspirational read. I think everyone will be able to relate to at least one of the challenges he overcame during his journey to his pilot certificate. Joining me today are Bill English, and Leslie Caubble. Before we begin a quick reminder the new 2024 version of the scholarship guide has been published and is available by clicking on the scholarships guide on the right side of the screen at https://stuckmicavcast.com/ Cruise Flight: Book Title - Expect Turbulence: The title has an obvious double meaning.

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.
