Customer Reviews
Easily My Favorite Aviation Podcast - Love It
This is a laid-back podcast with some great guests and great stories. I live and learned to fly in the upper midwest (KETB) and I love keeping up-to-date on the latest aviation news and events around me and the world.
A must for Midwest flyers
A thoughtful and mildly entertaining way to get the scoop and learn from a wide range of experts in aviation in a personal way. I love it!
The Midwest Has It All!
Florida just has heat and humidity. Texas is full of tornadoes. The west coast is nothing but rain and fog. The northeast is a constant blizzard. Only flying in the Midwest allows you the opportunity to tackle all of these challenges, often in a single month! And there’s no better place to learn about flying in the Midwest than the Flying Midwest Podcast! From local news and events to the worldwide impact of Midwest aviators, Jim, Trevor, and Madi provide fun and lighthearted banter leading up to insightful interviews with their guests. They close the show with the shortest Midwest goodbye known to mankind by giving a simple, yet effective, SEE YA! -The Badger Pilot
