Welcome to episode 300. Some pilots only fly in and out of controlled fields. For others, it may have been years since they visited an airport without a tower. Maybe you are a professional pilot getting back into general aviation and want a refresher on operating at non-towered airports. For those who operate every day out of non-towered fields maybe we can give you some tips and tricks to help you operate more efficiently and safely. Whatever your flying background, we hope you will find this episode helpful and fun.
Joining me in this episode are your co-hosts Russ Roslewski and Bill English.
