- Start from the beginning?
About 6 months ago I listened to the two most recent episodes of Ask the A&Ps. I liked it so much and recognized the value of the info I was hearing, I immediately started listening from the very beginning of the series! I thoroughly enjoy the format and topics discussed. Thank you for everything.

There is so much folk lore, and old tom-foolery information in aviation, pilots especially, need sources of reality like this to set the record straight.
Apple Podcasts5Lew in ChicagoUnited States3 months ago - Unlistenable
That older sounding fella interrupts the conversation constantly. Talking over people, injecting a random piece of info in the middle of peoples sentences, it’s nonstop. I didn’t even get 10 minutes into an episode and had to turn it off. 👎🏻
Apple Podcasts1ChibikabraUnited Statesa year ago - Filling in the gap
Through typical pilot training programs, we tend to spend substantial time and effort on maneuvers and other key aspects of flight but spend very little time on understanding the engine and other mechanical aspects the aircraft. This podcast is extremely helpful for filling that gap, particularly for the owner/pilot.
Apple Podcasts5daveike-n813psUnited States2 years ago - Love the show!!
So, my kryptonite is maintenance, but after finding your show, I have a new interest. The three of you complement each other so well, and I have learned so much from listening! I have quite a few back recordings to catch up on, but thankfully, I have an hour commute to work. Thank you for what you do! Plus, now I have a few books I need to order thanks to Mike!
