Fifty Years Aloft

from Greg Brown: Cockpit Adventures from the Flying Carpet · host Greg Brown

Text or Voicemail Greg!I was recently awarded the FAA’s Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award, for 50 years of safe piloting. It’s mind-boggling to consider how short the history of aviation is, that I should have personally flown for over 40% of the entire history of powered flight! In this episode I reflect on how general aviation flying has changed since I took to the skies in 1972. What’s more, today’s story kicks off a whole series of future episodes sharing many more cockpit adventures from those five decades. Something to look forward to!Okay, everyone, hop aboard my Flying Carpet, snug up your seatbelts, and prepare for takeoff on today’s adventure, “Fifty Years Aloft!”GregPS: If you enjoy this podcast, please share with friends, and rate and review it on your favorite podcast directory!
