Arty Trost and Chris Leak were the guests today. Arty is a leading lady in our Nation in the aviation field and Milford had the pleasure to talk to Arty about her planned flight from Oregon to the "Sun-N-Fun" Fly-in next month in Lakeland, Florida. Arty is a motivational speaker by trade, but a SPORT pilot by choice, first and foremost! See Arty's web site at "www.lessonsfromtheedge.com". A couple of things are a bit out of the ordinary for her planned flight though. First, it will be from the great northwest of the country to the great southeast! Even that is an overwhelming accomplishment for a seasoned pilot, BUT, Arty is going to do it in and aircraft that weighs about the same amount as Milford! Actually, it is closer to Charlie’s weight in reality! The aircraft is a 1984 Maxair Drifter and weights just 320 lbs and is powered by a 52hp two cycle engine! The flight will proceed south along the west coast to southern Cal-ah-four-knee-ah, then turn left and fly I-F-R to Florida. In this case the I-F-R means “I Follow Roads!”(Interstate 10 in this case), not the standard aviation meaning of “Instrument Flight Rules”…..after all, the thing don’t even have any instruments! Listen to the show and get the entire TRUE story from the lady that is going to do it, Arty Trost. Chris Leak of the Florida Gators was with Milford for the last fifteen minutes of the show. Milford was also joined by Robin in the FlightTime Radio Studio. Robin is the Sports “Expert” for WBOB, FlightTime Radio’s host station. 0:46:08 Sat, 28 Feb 2009 11:00:00 EST Milford and Glen LIVE...

Throughout the show and the weekend, fighters and bombers from WWII filled the skies over the airport with flight demonstrations, aerobatics and even rides in the old ‘Warbirds’ and fighters. For the first ten minutes of the show, Milford had some audio technical difficulties with his microphone, but had it cleared up by the second segment of the show. He and his guest, Glen Boyles talked with guests live there at the show and listeners calling into the show by phone. Milford and Glen gave away another "Introductory Flight" offered by our host, North Florida Flight Training. Listen next week because Milford will have Arty Trost on the show as well as Chris Leak.

Chris led the National Champion Florida Gator Football Team to their first SEC Championship since 2000, and a spot in the 2006 BCS National Championship Game against Ohio State University. Chris also broke many University of Florida passing records set by Heisman Trophy winner Danny Wuerffel. He eclipsed Wuerffel's record for career passing yards at Florida during the 2006 SEC championship season. 0:45:00 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 11:00:00 EST Charlie and Milford LIVE...

"Were Comming to You LIVE .. From North Florida Flight Training!" Milford and I met at North Florida Flight Training, over at Craig Airport. After setting up for the remote broadcast, we jumped into their bright shinny new "RedBird" full motion flight simulator. Actually, Milford jumped in it while scrambled to set the equipment up, but who am I to notice?! I finally got my opportunity to fly, taking over Milford's flight. He was at some nose bleed altitude over the Texas countryside. I immediatly pulled the power back to leave the 5000 ft. altitude and descend to a reasonable altitude.... maybe 700 or 800 ft. I found an airport and managed to land, then take off again. I noticed some radio towers in the distance and headed that way. I flew between thenm a couple of times before trying the "Red Bull" knife edge, ribbon cut while trying to weave in and out of the row of towers. To avoid a long story, I'll just say that the flight ended in time for me to make the radio show and the professionals at North Florida Flight Training with the difficult task of unwinding the simulator and clearing out the smoke from my crash! Milford and I gave away another "Introductory Flight" offered by our host, North Florida Flight Training. We had a "Blast" doing the show, and flying the "RedBird"! 0:43:34 Sat, 07 Feb 2009 11:00:00 EST Charlie and Milford IT WAS A REALL KICK!

Charlie and Milford were both in the FlightTime Radio Studio this morning and had Donato Martino from US Sport Aircraft with us to talk about their Light Sport Aircraft. They represent both GoBash Aircraft and the Czech Aircraft Works. During the second half of the show, we gave away an hour in North Florida Flight Training’s new RedBird multi-axis flight simulator to Mark. This time though we gave it away to the first person to send in an email to info@flighttimeradio.com with the announced code word in the subject-line of the message. Shawn Okun joined us from Float Planes and Amphibs in Sebring, FL. We had a very good discussion about the costs, requirements and the availability of aircraft for Light Sport Float Plane ratings.

Charlie was in the FTR Studio all alone, because Milford had flown down to Sebring, Florida to visit the "Light Sport Expo". This was the 5the Expo and had much better weather than last years.

Corkie is famous for his flying in movies such as James Bond as well as airshow and aircraft racing, but talked to Milford about his newest love, the "LoPriesti Fury"! Take a look at the aircraft on the LoPriesti Fury website! The show ended long before Milford had a all of the guests. We will be sure to have them on comming shows. 0:41:52 Sat, 24 Jan 2009 11:00:00 EST FlightTime Radio Hosts FlightTime Radio - Year 2 and going Strong! It was a beautiful morning, almost TOO beautiful to be inside I the FlightTime Radio Studio for the show, but We forced ourselves. Charlie and Milford opened the show talking a bit about the incredible water landing of the U. S. Airways jet in the Hudson River between New Jersey and New York City. Everyone agreed that it was truly amazing! Discussion moved on to the ease and simplicity of gaining your Sport Pilot rating and some of its restrictions. This led on into the giving away of ANOTHER “Introductory Flight” from North Florida Flight Training at Craig Airport. Before we knew it, we reached the end of our 55th FlightTime Radio Show. 0:44:55 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 11:00:00 EST FlightTime Radio Hosts 2nd Show of Our 2nd Year!

He also revealed that he has ordered a "Helicycle" helicopter kit from "HELICYCLE©". After Dick left, the winner of a previous "Discovery Flight", Steve, called to tell about his flight that had been provided by Sterling Flight Center at Craig Airport. He loved the flight and was able to take his 4 year-old son along. His son noticed the rivers and streams of northeast Florida, and refered to them as "Water Lizzards" because of the way they twisted across the landscape below. FlightTime Radio gave away ANOTHER "Discovery Flight"! Scott won the flight offered by the show sponsor, North Florida Flight Training.

After talking to Mark, Shawn Knickerbocker of Aviation Training and Consulting (see our Sponsors) called to tell us about his "New" 1943 SNJ-5 Navy Flight Trainer. He purchased it in California and flew it back to Herlong Airport in Jacksonville. Milford and Brian spent considerable "Smoozing" Shawn in a pitiful attempt to get a ride in it! This week, as a Birthday Celebration, FlightTime Radio gave away "Discovery Flights"! The first was from North Florida Flight Training and was won by Keith. The second was from Sterling Flight Center and was won by Alan.

That’s what Tony said and we agree! Tony was the winner of this weeks Discovery Flight, donated by North Florida Flight Training at Craig Airport. Tony had started to take Ground School to get his license back in the early 1980’s. Perhaps this will be the bug that bites Tony and takes him all the way to his pilot’s license! The heart of today’s discussion is about a program by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association or AOPA. The program, "Project Pilot” by the AOPA focuses on new and student pilots adopting a "Mentor" to help them along, encourage them, and even provide explanations to problems the student can’t seem to overcome. This discussion carried on to AOPA’s list of the 10 reasons students do not succeed. Perhaps, as a student, your problem is #4 or #7. Well, We discussed all 10 of the items, and you may find the answer or guidance to finally finish your flight training and gain that pilot rating you have spent so much time and money pursuing. Listen to the show and see! It’s also a good day because it is FlightTime Radio’s 52nd show which completes ONE FULL YEAR of bringing the Joy of Flying to everyone! 0:42:01 Sat, 27 Dec 2008 11:00:00 EST FlightTime Radio Hosts The Fun of Flying is All We Talk About Brian and Milford were in the FlightTime Radio Studio and had Special Guest Kim Lovejoy join them from the Military Heritage & Aviation Museum.

The museum is also interested in new displays. If you have military or aviation memorabilia and need a tax donation, consider donating it to the museum and allow others to enjoy your part of the past. Milford and Brian also talked about the new project being undertaken by Jacksonville’s EAA Chapter 193 and talked to Randy.

His flight took him through the Caribbean and over the Amazon Rain Forest to the customers private airstrip. 0:44:21 Sat, 6 Dec 2008 11:00:00 EST FlightTime Radio Hosts The Fun of Flying is All We Talk About This week, John Fisher, Director of Advaned ATC along with Al Negy and Advanced ATC CEO, Dan Cunningham were in the studio to talk about a new concept in becomming an Air Traffic Controller. Currently, controllers attend two or four year colleges to receive a degree or certificate of completion in Air Traffic Training. If you are then hired by the FAA as a controller, you are then required to attend the FAA Academy in Oklahoma City, OK. In the past, the successful completion rate at the FAA Academy is generally about 50 - 60%! Those that fail are out of a job with little or no chance to try again. At Advanced ATC, Training is very close to the actual course taught by the government at the Academy except Advanced ATC also incorporates "State-of-the-Art simulators in the process of teaching. Upon completion of the 52 week school, the graduate has earned a "Certified Tower Controller" rating or CTO as it is known in the industry.
