Thanks for asking! I like both the what’s happening in the cockpit as well as descriptions relating to current events - like the engine fire. Very interesting!
Love this perspective, Terry really resonates. “Fly the plane” is such a powerful mindset, in aviation and in life.
We also often say in the cockpit: “Brief what you fly, and fly what you brief.” That discipline and clarity translates so well to business and decision-making.
I have a feeling there’s a lot we could build together at the intersection of aviation and leadership/psychology, would love to explore a few ideas with you down the line.
Had a pair of bad turbulence experiences many years ago on short flights in Mexico and Europe and never recovered. I got my Private Pilot License as a remedy - at the front, bumps are just fun. I STILL grab the armrest as a passenger every single time! I know as the likes of me get all tensed up, the flight crew are making their shopping list. My best remedy is to laugh at myself.
Every aircraft definitely has its own “personality,” and once you know the quirks, a lot of those little noises and sensations make much more sense (and feel a lot less mysterious).
It’s a great way to turn “what was that?!” into “oh yeah, that’s normal.
Appreciate you suggesting this—more coming soon ✈️
I flew literally a million miles all over the world. Now I'm 71 and have cancer. I don't even travel to the grocery store any more. I have them delivered.
My favorite thing is cockpit videos. Especially landing in scenic or difficult places.

Love it. I use Aviation to orient many business teams- and to support lay-offs when they happen.
As a physician- (shrink) everyone should take flight school. It teaches us to live properly.
I always tell employees -"Fly The Plane..." Thanks Terry

Tips, etc have been good (calmest seats on plane, etc). Would love comments on quirks of certain aircraft.
Great point, Gary, love this idea.
