Learning, Living, and Loving To Fly.
Tell us about your favorite $100 hamburger spot like how you found it and why it’s your top choice; be it the location, scenery, fun approach, or other. Got any menu recommendations? Share those, too!
Don’t forget to use #benburger to track the conversation. Why #benburger? Benjamin is slang for a $100 bill and burger is short for hamburger (duh!) and so #benburger was born.

Because it feels like it’s been far too long since we’ve geeked out together about airplanes over food and beverage AND to celebrate our 50th episode, we’re hosting an OPEN INVITATION meetup!

You DO NOT have to be a listener of Stuck Mic AvCast to attend – ALL AVGEEKS ARE WELCOME! Whether you drive in or fly in, we’d love to see you for this special occasion.
Please RSVP if you’re confirmed to attend so we can guarantee your seat and gift bag. We will have a section of tables for our use – everyone is responsible for their own tab.

~ Picks of The Week ~
Back in December 2012, at a Christmas party, co-host Len Costa had the chance to meet a fascinating man by the name of Dr. J. Scott Brown while visiting Knoxville, TN on a work related overnight trip. A conversation ensued about life and the decisions we make and how they lead us here and there. So motivated by our conversation, Dr. Brown decided to share a very personal and touching poem he had written entitled, “Where Captain Why” about the thrill of the journey.
And while this poem has a very specific nautical theme it relates nearly word for word for aviators and pilots alike.
We now present, “Where Captain Why” by Dr. J Scott Brown:
The Fearless Captain holds the wheel
A place in mind his soul can feel.
He goes forward with no stress or doubt,
For he knows where he is, and has chosen his route.
Even with the waves and wind, He may be blown off course,
but corrects again.
For this place he seeks, he must go.
This is the place that will make him whole.
The Captain, the Ship and the Sea are one.
When the reason you sail is the right one.
Before you know it your port will appear and you can dock
without any Fear.
As your foot hits land, and you tie up the lines,
Your eyes look to the ocean for new goal to find.
For you see,
It is not the port you desire most,
Is is the thill of the journey from coast to coast.
If you’ve enjoyed this poem we would love for you to use one of the share buttons above or below this blog post and send this poem forward.
Cheers,
