Welcome to the Flying Reporter Podcast. I’m Jon Hunt, a private pilot and YouTuber from the UK, and these podcasts bring you interesting people, views and information, focussing on general aviation in the UK.
On this edition of the podcast we explore the seaplane rating… and my experience flying around the lochs of Scotland in an amphibious Cessna 172. Crazy as it might seem - this was some of the most thrilling flying I’ve done to date.
Also on this episode… we ‘ask the instructor’. Head of Training at Anglian Flight Centres, Nigel Willson joins me to discuss distractions in the cockpit, and how to avoid succumbing to tunnel vision. I share a recent experience of mine that led to me deviating from a controlled airspace clearance.
