The Student Pilot Cast (mp4)

Bill Williams
Learning to fly…in front of the world. A Podcast about flight training. Follow Bill as he progresses through his flight training. This is the video only feed. The audio podcasts are NOT the same content as the video podcasts, so if you want all the content, please subscribe to both. The audio feed is more tied to the student experience, in cockpit training, with a few features and special events. The video feed includes in-cockpit video sometimes, but is more feature oriented and does not typically coincide as closely with the training.
SPC Video #009-AOPA AFTA Demo
From the folks at the Student Pilot Cast, here is a demo of AOPA’s Flight Training Advantage, or AFTA. This is video episode 9 of the Student Pilot Cast. This episode is also published in higher resolution on our YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mg5YQ6CoeUM In audio episode 65 I had a chat with Dan Justman from AOPA at Oshkosh 2022 about AFTA and some of the details of the product. Here is the SPC audio episode 65 with more information about AFTA from the interview with Dan Justman: https://studentpilotcast.com/spc65 AOPA is trying to tackle what is likely part of the reason so many people quit pilot training before achieving their certificate by organizing the flight training process and making it more transparent and predictable, even in a part 61 setting. With their AOPA Flight Training Advantage program, or AFTA, they are hoping to make flight training more enjoyable for both the student and the CFI, and make the process a little bit easier, more predictable, and more streamlined…thus saving time, money, and hopefully helping a few additional people earn their certificate. I hope you enjoy this one. More information about AFTA can be found here: AOPA Flight Training Advantage – AOPA

SPC Video #006C-OSH22 with the High School Teacher in Oklahoma-Chris Eckler
The state of Oklahoma has gotten serious about aviation, STEM education, and the whole aeronautics industry. I caught up with a High School teacher in Oklahoma, Chris Eckler, to talk about what he’s doing in his school district with regard to Aviation Education and how he fell in love with Aviation in the process. He caught the bug and trained to be a pilot himself just ahead of his students.

SPC Video #006B-OSH22 with Opener on the BlackFly
In this episode I have an impromptu conversation with Celia Oakley of Opener. We had been hearing about their electric STOL aircraft but hadn’t planned on doing a feature on it until my crew took a spin in their 3D simulator and we found the evolution and the atypical flight characteristics of the BlackFly interesting…so we started asking some questions, and with the permission of Celia, got a bit of the conversation here. This is the video episode, but you can find the audio version which is almost the same but in audio only, in the audio podcast feed (our main feed). This video can also be found in higher resolution on our brand-new YouTube Channel here: https://youtu.be/cijxyS4E1HE More information on Opener and the BlackFly aircraft can be found here: https://opener.aero.

SPC Video #006A-OSH22 with Infinite Flight
In this episode I catch up with Laura and Jay of Infinite Flight to talk about their flight simulator. We cover what it is, how it started, is it a tool or a game, and what’s coming next. This is a fun discussion about something I hadn’t really been keeping up on the last decade or so; the flight sim world, and what I love about Infinite Flight is how easy it is to get started and use it wherever you might be. It’s a far cry from the traditional desktop sims which require big, expensive computers and big, expensive accessories. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. The video can also be found on our brand new YouTube Channel here: https://youtu.be/cijxyS4E1HE The Audio version of this episode is here: SPC #59 – OSH22 – Infinite Flight – The Student Pilot Cast Infinite Flight can be found in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store for your tablets and phones.
