Join me in the first episode of the recently-rebranded "Airline Pilot Guy" podcast! As you'll see (well, hear, actually), it sounds just the same. The main topic of discussion is the recent update of the AF 447 accident investigation, and how automation may have led (indirectly) to this senseless tragedy. I also talk about Captain's authority, and how it's misuse may have led to the removal of two Muslim Clerics on a recent flight departing Memphis. Send me your feedback!
