The LogBook - Aviation Storytelling Podcast
Everytime I go to some aviation event I don't think its possible to leave without a good story. Storytelling is enjoyed by all ages, especially in the aviation community where stories are the main way to share one's experiences when off the ground. While listening to The LogBook, you'll hear stories from people in aviation from every experience level: enthusiasts, complete beginners, airline pilots, aerobatic pilots, cross country/long distance pilots, test pilots, military veterans. And they'll all tell stories that will entertain, inspire, and educate the next generation of aviators. Find out more information at: thelogbookpodcast.com
