Hello and welcome to episode 370 of AvTalk. I am Ian Petchnik here as always with

Jason Rubinowitz. How are you, Ian? I'm doing well, Jason. How are you, sir? I'm good. Too bad we're

10 episodes too far into the series because at the end, it would have been good to tie this in as episode

360, but we got away all the way to the end of the podcast to get to that one.

We'll get there. We'll get there eventually. We have a very good show this week as longtime

friend of the show, Steve Giordano, is joining us from Nomadic Aviation Group. He'll be here.

How did we get a hold of him? Very, very carefully. He's going to join us to talk about what

happens when an airline goes out of

business and you need to move all of their aircraft into storage. And it's in your own backyard.

Yeah, at least one of them. Steve and his crew at Nomadic have moved nearly two dozen aircraft

over the past week and a half, and there are more to come.

So he's going to explain how that all works and some of the work that they've had to do,

and some of the challenges that they've had to deal with as they do that work a little later

in the show.

But first, we turn our attention to Denver, where over the weekend,

a Frontier Airlines, 831, Neo, struck a person on the runway. We've since learned

that that person scaled a perimeter fence at the airport and intentionally walked onto the runway.

The Denver medical examiner has ruled that person's death a suicide. Thankfully, no one on the aircraft was

seriously injured. Though it did cause an engine fire, the pilots rejected the takeoff,

were able to stop the aircraft on the runway. Because of

that engine, fire and damage to the aircraft, smoke-filled the cabin, so they elected to evacuate

the aircraft on the runway. During the evacuation, 12 people were injured, five were sent to the hospital.
