Cliff Brown tells us an amazing story of how a single event in his childhood led to a lifelong fascination with aviation which ended up compelling him to get his private pilot certificate along with the combination of using that certificate throughout his work life. Believe it or not, Cliff tells a great story about how his ability to fly an airplane saved the world from a meltdown disaster. We end the podcast with the latest chapter news and announcements.
