PJP #038 - Not Enough Tail
In this episode we welcome special guest Nathan Carriker, discuss vortex generators, a product review, and more. | ||
|
||
PIREPS: Mike describes the results of adding Vortex Generators to his Cessna 206. He was surprised at the decrease in stall speed once the upgrade was complete. |
||
Stu and Stew discuss their opportunity to be on board 'Ol 927, the Commemorative Air Force's B24 Liberator, during a 4 engine run-up and generator test. |
||
SPECIAL GUEST: This month we welcome Nathan Carriker, author of A Silver Ring, an Aviation Love Story. Nathan began flying at age eight, not long after learning he was the nephew of a B-24 flight engineer killed in action in 1944 and becoming obsessed with his story. That story, and many others close to his heart, inspired him to write the novel, A Silver Ring. Nathan earned his private pilot certificate on his 17th birthday and was a regional airline pilot by age 20. Nathan now flys for one of the majors. A Silver Ring is available from Nathan's web site, www.asilverring.com, or on Amazon.com in either printed or electronic versions. |
||
PRODUCT REVIEW: Stew introduces us to the Dual Universal GPS Receiver for use with an iPad or other Bluetooth-enabled device. Stew and Stu use the Dual with their iPads running ForeFlight, but it is also compatible with numerous other mapping and aviation apps for iOS, Android and others. |
||
READBACK: Brian from Canada sent us these photos of a Cessna 182 King Katmai aircraft modified by Todd Peterson. |
