360 8 Flight Training Experiences to Make You a Better Pilot with Dr. Catherine Cavagnaro + GA NewsMax talks with Dr. Catherine Cavagnaro about the value of advanced flight training and aviation experiences. Catherine shares her family tradition of gifting adventures instead of physical items, often involving flights to places like Fredericksburg, Texas, or Ireland, blending fun, learning, and aviation. They discuss using flight training as a “gift to oneself,” encouraging pilots to pursue new ratings or specialized courses to improve skills. Catherine highlights the instrument rating for enhancing precision and multitasking, and the commercial rating for smoothing out flying and improving passenger comfort. She advocates for specialized training like spin training to build stall confidence, mountain flying for high-terrain safety, tailwheel training for better rudder control, and quick, rewarding ratings like seaplane flying. Catherine emphasizes the importance of real IFR training, which focuses on enroute and departure procedures rather than just approaches, helping pilots confidently use their aircraft for travel. Both also stress the need for advanced avionics training to master modern glass cockpits, improving safety and proficiency. The episode inspires pilots to embrace continuous learning, specialize in skills, and have fun while becoming safer, more capable aviators. Many of these experiences can count toward a flight review.

364 Second Career in Aviation: Flying for PlaneSense with Jim Goldfuss + GA NewsMax talks with Jim Goldfuss about his journey from a career in logistics and retail to fulfilling his dream of flying professionally with PlaneSense, a fractional aircraft ownership company. Growing up around aviation, Jim earned his private pilot’s license in 1989 but paused his flying ambitions due to financial constraints. Decades later, with stable finances and family support, he resumed training, earning his instrument rating, commercial license, and Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) certificate between 2020 and 2022. Jim credits his time as a CFI with sharpening his aviation skills and communication abilities, which prepared him for his current role. He joined PlaneSense after a year-long application process, leveraging persistence and networking to stand out. At PlaneSense, Jim flies Pilatus PC-12s as a second-in-command, alternating legs with captains and handling preflight, avionics programming, and monitoring tasks. He praises the company’s culture, advanced equipment, and comprehensive training. Jim’s work involves a mix of short flights in the Northeast and longer legs to destinations like Florida and the Rockies. He aims to become a captain and potentially join the training department. Jim emphasizes the importance of networking for aspiring pilots pursuing their aviation dreams. If you're getting value from this show, please support the show via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle or Patreon.
