Pilot Life Podcast
Pilot Life is the podcast for pilots and aspiring pilots across Australia and New Zealand.
Each episode explores the wider world of aviation through practical discussions, engaging stories and conversations with people from across the industry. From flight training, airline operations and human factors to careers, decision-making, wellbeing, leadership and life beyond the flight deck, the podcast is about more than simply learning how to fly.
Hosted by Mark and Brooke, Pilot Life brings together experience, curiosity, professional insight and a little good-humoured banter. Whether you are preparing for your first solo, working towards a professional licence, flying commercially or simply passionate about aviation, there is a place for you in the conversation.
The podcast is also the starting point for a wider Pilot Life community, where listeners can continue the discussion, share experiences, ask questions and learn from one another between episodes.
Produced by Pilot Life, empowering pilots across Australia and New Zealand through online aviation training, community and conversation.
