In this episode Jim, Tony, and Al discuss photo pilot dertificates, aircraft accidents, and the royal family (really). They also whine about not getting enough flight time and welcome a couple of special guests. Of course, the episode includes the usual book, movie, song and website. You'll notice that there isn't a Destination of the Week but please don't bring it up...they'll only whine more about not getting enough flight time. BOOK OF THE WEEK
