This week we continue with our offer of FREE aviation videos. Here you will find videos that will help you prepare for a career in aviation or help you prepare for your airline checkride. These normally sell for $49.95 and, once again, you can stream these for free for the duration of the pandemic.
The subjects are
How to Get an Airline Job Airline Interview Power Successful Simulator Training Supercharge Your Scan Turbojet Systems Made Easy B737-300 Checkride Maneuvers B727 Practice Oral B727 Checkride ManeuversOn to another subject: the topic of RACE, especially as it applies to African-Americans, is occupying the news. According to OBAP, African-Americans are 13 percent of the American population but only account for 3 percent of professional pilots.
Of the approximately 200 aviation professionals interviewed on the Ready For Takeoff Podcast, 18 of my guests have been African-American. That comes out to 9 percent. It’s less than 13 percent, but a LOT more than 3 percent, and I feel really blessed to have connected with these professionals. Here’s the list of the episodes, which include 2 Tuskegee Airmen.
366 Walter Watson
298 Keith Reeves
292 Gregory Poole
267 Beth Powell
266 Jason Harris
241 Frank Macon
240 Willie Daniels
190 George Hardy
139 Otis Hooper
109 Todd Curtis
073 Brian Settles
068.5 Karl Minter
045 Dick Toliver
017 Donnie Cochran
015 Brenda Robinson
These are some amazing people, who in many cases overcame extreme prejudice and hardship. Do me, and yourself, a favor and pick one or two of these episodes to listen to this week.
If you want to reach out to any of them, you can send an email to [email protected] and I’ll forward it for you.
