Episode 62 – Cleared for Silence
from Destination Aviation Hosted by Jeffrey Miller
As 2025 comes to a close, this episode of Destination Aviation takes a step back — not just to reflect on the year, but to remember the airports that no longer appear on today’s charts. After a few opening updates and some behind-the-scenes channel news, the conversation shifts into a journey through the ghosts of aviation — airfields that once launched legends, trained generations of pilots, and shaped the cities that grew around them… only to quietly disappear. These are places where runways have been replaced by parks, neighborhoods, shopping centers, and roads — yet if you listen closely, you can still hear the echoes of radial engines, early jets, and student pilots on their first solo. This end-of-year episode isn’t just about what aviation has gained — it’s about what we’ve lost, and why those lost runways still matter.
