Thanks for downloading the Plane Safety Podcast with Pilot Pip, an aviation podcast about flying and being a pilot. 

This episode comes from the great city of Chicago and I'm joined as usual by Capt Al and special guest host Dr Steph. 

We're talking about mostly about my recent simulator recurrent, a little about more about threat & error, anti icing and lots more. 

As we mention in the show, please check out the BBC Radio comedy Cabin Pressure by John Finnimore....one of the finest comedies ever written. Available on iTunes, Audible.com and other places too. 

We'd love to hear from you so if you have any aviation stories or questions then please get in touch via the website or email feedback@planesafetypocast.com
