SMAC301 What Is Your Most Challenging Approach?

Welcome to episode 301. One of my favorite aviators because of his passion for flying is Dean Showalter. Dean is an aviation educator, podcaster, and all round nice guy. In a recent episode of his podcast, he discussed “The Most Challenging Approach” and asked the question “What’s the most interesting or out-of-the-ordinary instrument approach you’ve seen recently”. 

I thought it would be fun to have Dean on the show and discuss some of his listeners’ responses and discuss the most challenging or interesting approaches we have experienced.

Joining me in this episode are your co-hosts Tom Frick and Bill English.
