from Flaps Podcast · host Flaps Podcast
After much slaving over a hot editing system, the second edition of Flaps is ready. It’s not quite as jam-packed as the first one, but for a very good reason: 0.00 Introduction 1.15 We speak at length with Peter Burkill. Peter was the captain of the BA 777 that crashed at Heathrow in January 2008. You might have heard about it. Anyway, he’s got a book out detailing the accident and his life since. This is a fascinating interview – and thankfully not one we need to do very often. 23.14 We catch up with our Pet PPL, student pilot Karl. He takes us right back to our very own training days – he’s been learning about stalls. 28.58 Pablo Mason talks about the time he proved to doubters that he indeed was an RAF pilot… 32.54 …and we check on Pablo’s bar tab. 33.41 We look ahead to next month’s Flaps.
