    Just Say No (Go) (February 2026)

    Dark clouds. A loaded helicopter. And a captain determined to go—no matter the cost. In this episode of “Never Again”, a hop across New York City turns into a white-knuckle fight against weather, pressure, and cockpit authority. As thunderstorms close in and visibility drops below legal minimums, a copilot is forced to choose between speaking up—or staying silent.

    Running Out of Options (December 2025)

    In this episode of “Never Again,” a young instrument-rated pilot sets out for a cozy Thanksgiving with family only to find himself racing a fast-moving winter system across the Midwest. But when one airport after another unexpectedly closes in blowing snow, his carefully crafted plans evaporate. With fuel dwindling, visibility collapsing, and the squall line tightening around him, he’s forced to improvise a plan B… then C… then D… until he’s running out of sky, daylight, and options.

    In this episode of “Never Again”, a regional airline captain takes off from Cordova, Alaska, expecting just another routine hop in his Beechcraft 1900. But as the aircraft climbs into the clouds, ice begins to build—and keeps building. With performance fading, visibility gone, and mountains rising below, the crew fights to keep the airplane flying long enough to break through the top of the storm.
