Hello everyone and welcome! Update on, “where you been?”, what’s expected, AND I get cut off in traffic. In addition you’ll hear my rant about the FAAs decision to bastardize Part 147 A/P schools, SouthWest is getting better, Alaska Airlines on the, “up and up”, mechanics who love certain brands of tools, my .02$ dealing with bad passengers AND a Merry Christmas message! Wow! Quite a lot for 40 mins of driving eh?! Not the best audio (apologies) as I was driving while recording.. but you’ll get the “gist”. Happy holidays!!

For sixteen years, the host known as 'Wheelz' has turned wrenches on some of the most advanced flying machines ever built. That experience forms the backbone of The Good the Bad and the Ugly: The Aviation Maintenance Industry-Raw!. This isn't a polished corporate presentation; it's a hangar-floor perspective from an A&P mechanic who has seen it all. Each episode pulls back the curtain on the daily realities, pressures, and unspoken rules that define life on the line. You'll hear candid stories about the ingenious fixes, the frustrating shortcuts, and the systemic cultural issues that those outside the tarmac fence rarely glimpse. Wheelz digs into the tensions between safety protocols and production pressures, discussing the compromises that can happen when schedules are tight. This podcast serves as a raw audio log from the front lines, offering a voice to the technicians who keep global travel moving, for better or worse. It’s for anyone fascinated by aviation's inner workings, from aspiring mechanics to frequent flyers curious about what truly determines an airworthy aircraft. Expect a direct, unfiltered take that prioritizes gritty truth over comfortable fiction, exploring the full spectrum of professional aircraft maintenance without the usual filters.
