The life of a corporate pilot, with Mark McIntyre

from Pilot's Discretion from Sporty's · host Sporty's Pilot Shop

Pro pilot doesn’t have to mean airline pilot. Longtime corporate pilot and safety advocate Mark McIntyre explains the appeal of business aviation, why safety has to be the focus for a flight department, the unique challenges of international flying, and how to use new debriefing tools to fly safer. Mark began his career as a seaplane pilot, so he also shares lessons learned in this demanding environment. In the Ready to Copy segment, you’ll hear about the best seaplane, managing fatigue, and fun places to fly in the Pacific Northwest.SHOW LINKS:* NBAA international operations: https://nbaa.org/aircraft-operations/international/* Kenmore Air: https://kenmoreair.com/* Pilot’s Tip of the Week: https://pilotworkshop.com/tip
