  • Proper Hangar Flying

    Jack, Jeb and Dave are as informative as they are entertaining. Sometimes corny but always enjoyable—this is not a highly produced program but that’s one reason why I like it.

    Why all the political nonsense.? This is an aviation podcast. We all know you three are very liberal, and proud of it. But stop being so condescending! It’s not becoming and it turns people off. I can handle political discourse and debate but your “holier than thou” attitude is disgusting.

  • Great podcast, can’t hear Jeb

    My favorite podcast, but almost unlistenable due to volume levels. If I turn up the volume to hear Jeb, Jack is overpowering. I stopped listening for now, hope it gets corrected.
