This validates the thesis that modern software and controls platforms will make everything possible! Modern engineering practices empower skilled and creative people instead of enslaving them in legacy platforms. Bravo Maxime Beck and the team at Wandercraft.

In aviation, pilots are always plotting a course for higher altitudes where the air is smoother and the skies less crowded. Similarly, in our careers and as a team, setting our sights on loftier goals ensures that we are not complacently cruising at a lower altitude, susceptible to complacency and competitive threats.

In the latest episode of The Casey Cease Show, I had an enlightening conversation with B.J. Slater about the unique path to becoming a commercial pilot. Starting in West Lafayette, Indiana, at Purdue, B.J. embarked on a journey filled with dedication and passion for aviation. The initial step for many in this field, including B.J., was becoming a flight instructor. This role is often seen as a crucial stepping stone in a pilot's career, offering a chance to not only share knowledge but also to refine and enhance one's flying skills. B.J. shared how most pilots view the flight instructor phase as an essential experience, vital for gaining the experience needed to advance. It's more than just a job; it's an opportunity to grow and prepare for the challenges ahead in the aviation industry. This conversation sheds light on the dedication required to navigate the complexities of a flying career and the importance of every step in this journey. For anyone fascinated by the world of aviation or curious about the steps involved in becoming a commercial pilot, this episode is a must-listen. The insights B.J. offers are invaluable, highlighting the blend of commitment, skill development, and passion needed to succeed.

Last Saturday, I became a pilot for a day. 👨✈️ Well, for 45 minutes if we’re counting — but let’s not. I’ve always had a strong interest in the aviation industry. In fact, that’s what led me to apply for an internship role at AirAsia when I was 21. Being surrounded by pilots every day only deepened my curiosity about how they fly an aeroplane. What’s it like up there? Is it anything like driving a car? (Obviously not.) Why are there so many buttons in the cockpit? Last Saturday, I finally got to answer those questions and more. I attended Simflightkl, a non-motion simulator that allows participants to try their hand at piloting an aircraft. I had the chance to fly an Airbus, and it was a real eye-opener. To my surprise, there wasn’t a traditional steering wheel (yoke) like I’d seen on TV. Instead, the Airbus had a side stick — something you usually see in a fighter jet. The side stick was a bit sensitive, so you’ve got to be highly trained to use it to fly an aircraft. Plus, the absence of a larger yoke means more space, and I certainly felt the advantage. For instance, I could bend forward to press some of the buttons more easily — though I’m not sure if that’s a significant benefit. During my session, I managed to do two take-offs and two landings, and it was a blast. Luckily for my non-existent passengers, I landed safely on both counts. Though I did make a few sharp turns while in the sky, I’m not sure how many would have stayed in their seats! 😆 And oh, I finally figured out how autopilot works too. It’s not as complex as I imagined, but it definitely makes the pilot’s job easier. Overall, it was an amazing experience that made me appreciate the skill and precision it takes to fly an aircraft. P.S. If you know any pilots who’d be interested in sharing their knowledge and expertise in an interview for an article, please let me know.
