The Flying Reporter Podcast

Jan 23 2023 • 20 mins

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.

Today, we meet the private pilot who had a stroke mid-air, went blind, and was talked down for a safe landing. And in our ‘ask the instructor’ feature, we’re going to share some useful information that might help you, if you should have a rough running engine.

The Flying Reporter Podcast is a co-production with The Podcast Coach and brought to you in association with Aerops. The payment app for pilots, aerodromes and operators that makes it easy to pay landing fees, book PPR, settle parking and handling charges and even pay for fuel.  Download AEROPS now from the Android or Apple app stores.
