    Episode 62 - The "Good Enough" Epidemic

    Throughout the world, we have adopted a philosphy of creating and producing products and services that are just "Good Enough." As consumers, we are getting used to spending our money on cheap and simple items and as employees and citizens we are conforming to just giving the bare minimums that equal "Good Enough".

    Our economies are failing, and our true potential is being shut out.

    How high can you fly?

    How far can you go...if you let yourself soar?

    Episode 59 - The Flight into Canada and Alaska

    Episode 59 - The Flight into Canada and Alaska

    By popular request, here is the episode that you've been waiting for! Michael Combs and Bob Warner discuss the adventure of flying over the Canadian wilderness in a Remos Light Sport Aircraft.

    The weather was "unsettled" according to the forecasters, and the risks were great as the two began their flight day from Boeing Field in Seattle, WA. The route led them to Vancouver, then onward to Kamploops and Prince George, British Columbia.

    Imagine just what it is like listening to an airline attempting to land in heavy winds at an airport that you are heading toward...or deciding to leave the safest route to fly over some of the most rugged country found on earth. It all happened on The Flight for the Human Spirit.

    This is history in the making and certainly will become a collector's edition as you listen to the actual words and experiences of these two pilots.
