Summary

Episode 223 Show Notes

Topic of the show: How do we stay off the landline and why is it an important controller skill? On this week’s show, RH goes off on a rant about the misuse of landlines and the lessons he learned as a trainee to use them sparingly. We also talk about “landing assured”, a busy flight school pattern, and LPV approaches. This is a packed episode and you don’t want to miss a minute! Enjoy!
