    The Learjet 60 Crash, the Speculation Problem

    A tragedy deserves an investigation, not an internet verdict. This week, Jessie and Preston address the fatal Learjet 60 crash and the wave of speculation that followed, from pilot-age criticism to sweeping claims about the aircraft. They discuss why waiting for the NTSB matters, the challenge of responding to viral misinformation, and the broader safety conversations worth having without drawing conclusions about the cause. Then, the Wheels Up debate continues: do six factory-new Phenom 300Es, improving operating metrics, and another round of Delta support point to a turnaround or a longer road to becoming Delta Private Jets all over again? Plus, Jeppesen’s paper-chart farewell, retired jet engines finding a second life powering AI data centers, a tribute to Ed Bolen as he announces his retirement, and the Fly Alliance restructuring that has the hosts asking whether they can unring the M&A gong. Thank you to our sponsors AB Jets and REAL Jet and Wingform for sponsoring Mile High Madness.

    SPC100 [CS] Creamy Yogurt — Landings Then and Now

    Eighteen years ago, I was a student pilot with a recorder plugged into my headset, learning to land in front of the world. For Episode 100, I went back to those original recordings. You'll hear the cockpit audio from my own training landings in 2008, what I said about them on the show back then, and what I hear in them now as a CFI. There's the herky-jerky on final, the skipper, the flat landings, my first solo, a 16-knot crosswind, and my instructors saying the same few things over and over. Then we flip it. I take you along on a landing lesson with my student Cole at Falcon Field, and you'll hear me say a lot of those same things from the right seat. You'll also hear the lesson that mattered most that morning, and it had nothing to do with the flare. In between is the episode I've wanted to make for years: how not to bounce a landing. We cover the stabilized approach and why I now expect a go-around on every landing, then the roundout, the flare, and why you hold the airplane, not the yoke. What's your first-solo landing story?
