    September Blog - A Humiliating Landing Day Disaster

    Landing Days are sketchy for Cabin Crew. There's a good chance you'll pull into the motorway services for a 20 minute power nap and wake up 8 hours later with a security guard banging on your window checking you're still alive. You feel like death warmed up, shouldn't make important decisions and most definitely shouldn't attempt anything vaguely complicated. Like reversing a car. Poor Susan spills the beans of her humiliating mistake in public on landing day. Based on a true story. Totally not our writer's story. She wouldn't do anything like that. No, it was someone else. Honest guv. If you like free audiobooks, based on true stories in the aviation industry, then check out the latest episode of The Red Eye podcast. Send us a text!

    A Golden Shower

    We're back to passenger's behaving badly today!

Here today's story and take a wild guess what this naughty passenger did, in the latest episode of The Red Eye. Where you can hear the true stories of flight attendants, pilots and their passengers, wrapped up nicely in a fictional style free audiobook. Perfect for a quick escape whilst you get in your steps, drive around or do your chores!

    Fight or Flight

    A violent hijacking by a crew member causes the pilots to fight back for their lives. In 1994, a disgruntled employee called Auburn Calloway was facing disciplinary action for lying about his flying hours. He decided to take matters into his own hands and give his children the Fed Ex life insurance money by attempting the unthinkable. He hid weapons in his carry on baggage, had unrestricted access to the cockpit and tried to murder all three flight crew after take off. His plan was to crash the aircraft and make it all look like an accident. The courageous crew fought back, attempting extreme aerial maneuvers, including almost rolling the DC-10 plane upside down at 140 degrees, and performing dives to disarm and subdue Calloway. Captain David G. Sanders, First Officer James M. Tucker Jr and Flight Engineer Andrew H. Peterson were true heroes. Fighting to the end despite their horrific injuries that cost them their careers. Hear their story, told as a short audio story on The Red Eye podcast. Where true aviation events are told in a fictional style. Because sometimes, the unbelievable needs to be told in a way we can believe!

    The Layover Lie

    Would you ever lie to give yourself more time in a destination? In the aviation world, we've had plenty of crew who will go sick downroute so they don't have to work home - they get the name One Sector Sally (a cabin crew member who gets the reputation of only working one sector). I guess a flight attendant might do that for myriad reasons. They hate their job, they have stuff going on at home, or maybe they meet the most amazing guy at their destination and don't want that magic to end? That's exactly what happened to the donor of our latest story. She met an incredible man in Cape Town, and had to make a choice about leaving him or leaving her crew a man down! Listen to this true story, told in the style of a fabulous beach read audiobook, on The Red Eye podcast. Where you hear the true stories of the crazy lives of cabin crew.

    Fire on Final Approach

    A major lithium battery fire occurred in an overhead locker on a Virgin Australia Boeing 737 flight from Sydney to Hobart on July 21st, 2025. Whilst preparing the cabin for landing, the cabin crew were alerted to smoke, and the sounds of pops and hisses. A lithium battery fire is a cabin crew's worst nightmare. Because once one cell ignites, you risk something called Thermal Runaway, where the adjacent cells begin to overheat and ignite as well - causing the fire to spread quickly and uncontrollably. The key is too cool it down fast. But what if the lithium battery is hard to locate? And what if the aircraft is rapidly coming into land? In this true story, we hear about how the crew acted fast, and used both their extensive training, and their ability to think outside the box to save lives. Send us a text!

    Stuck Up a Mountain

    Going off on adventures whilst on a layover is a perk of the job as a member of flight crew. Hiking in far away places, taking in vistas you'd never normally see, or maybe skiing up in Big Bear in California... On today's episode of The Red Eye podcast, we hear the true story of a cabin crew member who took the opportunity to ski with the rest of the crew - only to risk not making it back in time to operate the flight home, and possibly leaving hundreds of passengers stranded.
