  • Guest Microphones

    Are multiple guests sharing one microphone? It sounds like some are running up to the mic while talking, starting sentences very weak. The information is invaluable and I’d hate to miss something for someone not talking directly into the mic. Keep up the good work!

  • Great Podcast

    As a new hire and someone coming from the military with no 121 experience these have been an awesome resource already for me. This has been a great reference to not only what the ALPA does for me, but offers a glimpse behind the curtain in how the union operates and what they are doing with negotiations. Well worth the listen.

  • Very informative

    I’d been reading about these in the emails but put off listening until today. Let me say wow, these are really informative, well made, and just a high quality podcast. I’ve listened to half of them while deadheading around. Summer survival and Fatigue ones were valuable resources. The Mother’s Day one was shocking to hear how rough the conditions are for our pilot mothers.

    Keep up the great work
