Episode 7

SPC #007-Alone Again

Another episode.  This week I get to finish up recounting the story of my first solo, and then the very next day, my second solo.  There was a lot of good experience to be had, and I try to sum it up in this episode.

Enjoy, and let me know if you have any suggestions for the audio cast.  I’m hoping to get some video up soon, but I’m experimenting with the capture of video.  Well see how it all works out.

Bill Williams

Bill Williams is a CFI/CFII and podcaster based in Mesa, Arizona. He's also a papa, a geek, a diver, a sailor, and a motorcycle rider, but flying is the thread that ties us together here.

Bill started the Student Pilot Cast as a student pilot, bringing listeners into the cockpit (and, more frighteningly, into his head) to share the triumphs and the setbacks of learning the art and science of flight. Years and a few interruptions later, the student became the instructor, and the show grew up with him.

Today the Student Pilot Cast is built around one idea: Fly. Learn. Repeat. Every flight teaches you something, but only if you take the time to reflect on it. Through solo episodes and conversations with instructors, training leaders, and aviation innovators, many recorded on the grounds at Oshkosh, Bill helps student pilots, new pilots, and fellow CFIs get more out of every hour in the air.
