Whiskey Alpha Pilot :: Learning to Fly - One mistake at a timeAuthor: Wayne Allen
One mans quest to learn to fly. Or not.Join me as I chat about the ups and downs of learning to fly from the perspective of an older student pilot. From my near misses to my big mistakes, from what not to do's to things you should do, I have probably cocked them all up. This podcast could also be titled 'how not to gain a PPL'. So learn from my mistakes, but do not do what I tell you - I am not a flight instructor.Never use the internet to learn to fly, it will only teach you how to crash!

Well, strap in and tune in, because that's been the theme of my life recently! I'm Wayne from Whiskey Alpha Pilot, and it's high time we caught up. I've been dodging business curveballs and wrestling with the British weather gods, which sadly means my trusty C172, and I have been spending more time apart than I'd like. Guess what happens when you post a video titled "How Not To Land"? You get a viral sensation and an avalanche of colorful commentary! I'll share the unexpected journey one of my YouTube flights took—from a few thousand views to causing quite the stir online. It's a wild mix of armchair critics, genuine concern, and a few good laughs. But here's the kicker: through it all, it's about staying true to the joy of flying and the community it creates. Flying is a case of ups and downs - lefts just not hit the ground on the downsI'm a UK based private pilot (PPL(A), who started to learn to fly in my 50s. I passed (just), but every flight is a learning experience. I currently own 1/5 of a Cessna 172 - but I am not sure which bit is mine.Follow me on Social Media Website https://whiskeyalphapilot.com/Twitter/X https://twitter.com/wayneallenpilotInstagram https://www.instagram.com/whiskeyalphapilot/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WhiskeyAlphaPilotYouTube https://www.youtube.com/@WhiskeyAlphaPilot
