  • Invest in Audio

    Great podcast, but you REALLY need to tweak your audio. Your intro and outro volume is VERY loud, then transitions to much lower volume with the voice volume of the show.

    Great podcast, but you REALLY need to invest in your audio. Low volume and large changes from intro to voice.

  • Good podcast bad audio quality

    Good aviation content and guests but audio quality is not good —bad even. I don’t know how people aren’t complaining more. Especially Not good to listen to at high speed (1.5x or higher)

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Conversation With The LATAM Airlines Group CEO
Q: Where do things stand at the moment? Are things getting better for you on the engine and aircraft delivery and reliability side at LATAM?
Alvo says delivery delays have decreased and conditions are more stable, but he remains concerned about further supply-chain disruption. Engine reliability remains a problem, especially for A320neo aircraft with Pratt engines, and he wants manufacturers to prioritize the reliability of current aircraft.
A Conversation With The LATAM Airlines Group CEO
Q: What do you see as the key milestones and drivers behind that success for LATAM?
Alvo says LATAM's success starts with engaged employees and a service-focused culture. Its priorities are people, customers and the environment, with results following from serving customers and the communities where it operates.
Emirates' Tim Clark Shares Hidden A380 Backstories
Q: What are your thoughts on that?
Clark questions the basis for the EU proposal to include Dubai in the EU emissions trading system, arguing that it targets hub carriers that challenge European airlines. He says the EU should consider reciprocity and whether member states support the measure.
Emirates' Tim Clark Shares Hidden A380 Backstories
Q: How is that impacting your model?
Clark says regional unrest has had less impact than expected: Emirates is operating 91% of its fleet, passenger and cargo income remain strong, and demand recovered after an initial slowdown.
Air Serbia's Winning Formula
Q: How is the high-fuel-price and geopolitical environment impacting Air Serbia's growth plans going into 2027?
Marek says strong demand and yields can partly offset higher fuel costs. Air Serbia has continued to add capacity and destinations, and expects demand to be boosted by its centenary and Expo 2027 in Belgrade.
