The crew tackles the midlife aviation dilemma: wanting that next rating but lacking time for full commitment. The hosts share Brian's "Trip Fall Succeed method" - making progress through small steps instead of diving headfirst into training.

1DullGeek takes the hot seat to defend his controversial lean-of-peak flying technique that left Brian "smiling and nodding while trying to keep up." Using full throttle and mixture control for power management breaks more than just Lord Alpha Juliet... more
Episode 145 brings you "information whiskey" - the crew's loose, conversational format where they step back from their "really tightly wound formatted structure" to catch up on life, flying, and everything in between.

If you are midlife and working on your PPL, thinking about it, or certificated this is the podcast for you. I found this podcast a while back and look forward to it every week. The discord makes it even better, it is a great resource for those of us not necessarily in our early 20s on the career track who just enjoy flying and the activities surrounding flying. Give it a listen and see for yourself.
As a midlifer thinking about a PPL I was shocked to come across this podcast and community. I didn’t know what I am feeling is a thing; I just thought I was some crazy old dude thinking about trying to squeeze in a decade or two of an awesome hobby that nobody in my life would understand.
I’m hooked, and love the perspective of the show. All the questions that come up are just the way I would ask them. Great job!!
This is so much more than just a “Podcast”. The crew at Midlife Pilot Podcast have fostered an informative and respectful cultured community where there is true comfort in discussing the trials and tribulations of being a midlife pilot (or to be honest, any stage in your life pilot). If you have an enthusiasm for GA, then look no further then this Podcast and the community that comes with it.
My favorite thing about this podcast is that all the hosts are focused on real-world general aviation flying. They supply the missing lessons from your pilot training: how to take care of an aircraft, how to plan long cross-country trips, and how to deal with surprises along the way. They approach it all with humor and humility. Highly recommended!
These guys do a great job of making you feel like you’re just sitting around the living room talking about flying. They keep it very casual, yet hit on a lot of important topics for new pilots like myself. I’m about 15 episodes in currently and always look forward to driving so I can listen to the next episode.
