The power of the aviation community, with Justin Siems

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

Professional pilot and podcast host Justin Siems says aviation is “a welcoming community that feels like it's not.” He explains why, based on his experience interviewing nearly 400 pilots. Justin also talks about making the transition from fractional flying to the major airlines, why he launched a print magazine in a world dominated by short-form video, and how his background as a Big Ten college football player translated directly to the flight deck. In the Ready to Copy segment, he shares the best advice he’s received from a guest, his humbling experience landing the Boeing 737, and his routine for early morning trips.SHOW LINKS:* Pilot to Pilot podcast and magazine: https://www.pilottopilothq.com/* Justin on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pilottopilot/* PJ2 GPS Radio: https://www.sportys.com/pj2-gps-radio.html
