About This Podcast

"Try Not to Crash". The last thing my instructor said when I went solo. Sound familiar?

Join me as I chat about the ups and downs of learning to fly general aviation from the perspective of an older student pilot. From my near misses to my big mistakes, from what not to do's to things you should do, I have probably cocked them all up.

This podcast could also be titled 'how not to gain a PPL'. So learn from my mistakes, but do not do what I tell you - I am not a flight instructor.

Never use the internet to learn to fly, it will only teach you how to crash!
