Video Podcast Pilot Episode

Rafael — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 12:06:21 +0000

I’m testing out a new format for my podcast. This is my “pilot” episode, and no pun is intended. Rather than producing an audio podcast, I’ve decided to give a web show a chance.

There are a lot of very well produced aviation audio podcasts out there, but I couldn’t find an aviation themed webshow, so I figured I’d produce one.

Here are the links to the articles that I talk about in the show:

* Klingon takes over the cockpit of a US Air Force jet For the record, it does not appear that anyone got a picture of the Klingon in the plane.

Call (916) 643-3192 for the next Open Cockpit Day.

* Iran to mass produce the IRAN-140 plane

* United adds flights to Denver from Dallas Love Field

* Karlene Pettit’s blog post about landing an A330

* Video Spotlight: A330 Landing

Please let me know what you think of the new format, either in the comments or by emailing me using the contact form. Any feedback is appreciated!

I’m thinking about airing the show on Sundays at 9 PM US Central Standard Time, but I may broadcast in a different time slot. Of course, the recording will be available for later viewing.

Fighter Friday: Sukhoi Su 30MKI Flanker

I found this really cool diagram of the Su-30MKI Flanker over on RIA Novosti website. I think this is a beautiful plane, in the way that only Russian planes can be beautiful. I don’t know what it is about Russian planes, but they have this uniqueness to them that I find really enjoyable.

Oh yeah, before I forget, this post marks the beginning of a new series called “Fighter Fridays.” I’ll post a picture of a fighter aircraft on Fridays, instead of doing the podcast since I can’t seem to get a podcast out the door on time.

This is an Indian Air Force jet coming in for a landing at Nellis AFB.

Here is this week’s podcast. I used a different program to edit the audio this week and I’m really not pleased with the results. Sorry for the poor quality, but I couldn’t go another week without posting the podcast.
