Episode 50

SPC #50 – Not Today, Baby!

This is episode 50, where you may have been expecting an episode about my check ride, but alas, there was a bit of a snag, so you can get all of the information in this week’s episode. This episode will include part one of some makeup flying and we even go and land at Pinal Airpark to look at some mothballed airplanes. Believe it or not, it was a fun, relaxing flight, but I’ll be back to stressing about the check ride soon enough. Hope you enjoy episode 50.

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.
