The Unstoppable Love for 'Bi-Annual' | #45

Ever wondered why we adamantly call it a 'bi-annual flight review', in spite of the term not being in regulations anymore? We're about to give you a history lesson on aviation jargon that you won't find elsewhere. This episode is a wild ride, a lively debate on the language we use in the aviation community, and a touch of sports talk radio vibe. We're not your typical aviation podcast, and we certainly don't shy away from expressing our strong opinions, even if it involves our flight experiences, recent adventures, or just goofing around.

I hope you're ready for a candid chat that's both informative and amusing. Our listener compares our take to other aviation podcasts, valuing our approach to keep it engaging without sounding too preachy. And, while we're on the subject of strong views, we're passionate about the term 'bi-annual flight review'. We insist on its historical significance and refuse to give in to the modern 'flight review' terminology. Tag along as we dive into this debate, filled with laughter, spirited discussions, and our unwavering love for aviation. It's not all serious, but that's what makes it fun. Buckle up and join the ride!
