Dr. Steph joins me on this flight!
The Dreamliner works great, 24/7/248. Don’t worry, I doubt you’ll see them falling from the sky.
Who knew? A 10-member panel from the National Research Council reveals the FAA was not delivering the system that had been promised and should “reset expectations” about what it is delivering to the public and the airlines that use the system.
A couple of quick-thinking Aer Lingus pilots saved their plane and their 46 passengers last year when a thick layer of sea salt formed on the windscreen, obstructing their view of the runway for landing. Listen to the show to hear how they successfully landed.
Stay tuned for how you can order the Acme Airlines coffee mugs and pint glasses. The logo etching on the pint glass is lighter than in the picture, and the blue logo on the mug is not quite as bright as pictured.

For the first time ever on APG, an “augmented crew!” I was joined by fellow pilots Miami Rick and Dr. Steph.
Several iPad Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) at American had a problem with a crashing app. Was anyone in danger? Well, if you’re the clueless media, YES! Not the media? Well then, no.
For an inexplicable reason, a Turkish A320 dipped its wing right before touchdown, resulting in the right engine, pylon, and wingtip contacting the runway. After a successful go-around, the jet returned for an eventful landing. Check it out.

The GAO released a report earlier this month discussing the U.S. ATC system, and the need for the FAA to more comprehensively address cybersecurity as it transitions to “NextGen.” Several “experts” have jumped into the fray, including a guy who tweeted about his hacking prowess, resulting in his removal from a United flight in Syracuse. Is this another case of bad reporting? Or, is there really a serious cybersecurity threat?
In the wake of the Germanwings tragedy, the chief of Airbus’s jetliner division warned against reducing the pilots’ role in aviation safety.
A Piper 601 Aerostar had an interesting “touch-and-go” at the Aero Acres Airport in Fort Pierce, Florida. You have to watch this video. Wow.
One of the pilots of the Serbian Presidential private jet, a Dassault Falcon 50, accidentally activated the Emergency Slat Extension switch while trying to sop up spilled coffee, causing an uncontrolled dive of about 5,000 feet. Apparently, he will now have some time off to think about his error, and catch up on past episodes of the Airline Pilot Guy show!
