    Kicking Off the New Weekly Format

    Welcome to the revamped weekly edition of the podcast! In this episode, I tackle listener questions about MEI (Multi-Engine Instructor) privileges and share tips for preparing for a multi-engine add-on rating. I also dive into a couple of engaging discussions from r/Flying Reddit threads that I’ve recently commented on. This new weekly format adds regular, bite-sized content between episodes of the longer-form ACS series, which is still in progress and not going away. These weekly shows are designed to keep the conversation going while I continue working on the more in-depth episodes you’ve come to enjoy. I hope you like this new approach—your questions and feedback are what keep the show fresh and valuable, so don’t hesitate to share your thoughts! Tune in, and let’s explore these topics together.
