"Plane Talk" is the only live talk show of its kind in the world exclusively dedicated to General Aviation and the community of pilots.
The show is produced by Radek Wyrzykowski - A Certificated Flight Instructor whose instruction is focused on aviation safety and pilot proficiency; Jon King Roberts - a Pilot, musician, and entertainer and Jason Archer - Chief Flight Instructor & Lifelong Educator.
The program is an open discussion: opinions and commentary about General Aviation issues and news with a dose of hangar flying humor. We also explore aspects of flying such as training, proficiency, and safety. Occasionally guests from various fields of aviation come aboard, including flight instructors, industry insiders, and manufacturers. During our live shows, you can call 866-424-0172 with any aviation-related questions, suggestions, problems, or opinions. We'll do our best to laugh at you, answer questions - if we've got a clue, and have a little fun at your expense while doing it! This is a call-in show, but watch out, you can call us, but we can and will also call you!

Pilots with big hearts!
In this show, we talk about volunteer flights by pilots who help medical patients requiring medical diagnosis, treatment or follow-up who cannot afford or are unable to fly commercially.
Our guest on the show is volunteer pilot Mark Hanson. He could hardly imagine that he’d be flying an Eclipse 500, let alone using it to provide free flights to more than 100 people and families in need of transportation for medical treatment. Mark not only pilots Patient AirLift Services (PALS) flights, but he also donates all related operating costs. -
Stick & Rudder vs. BRS part. II - Land or pull a parachute?
Our guest on the show is Marc Epner. Mark is a Chicago-based pilot who started his love affair with aviation when he was a young boy growing up in the southern suburbs of Chicago. After earning his private pilot certificate in 1976, life forced Marc to take a break from flying. A full 25 years later, he returned to flying and has since accumulated 2400 hours and purchased a Cirrus SR22. He is co-host of the SimpleFlight Radio podcast and is active with his "Passion For Flying (PF Flying)" YouTube Channel. Mark recently landed his SR-22 in a field after an engine failure without pulling his chute.

Customer Reviews
Great aviation guests!
This is a fairly new aviation podcast that is well done and fun to listen to. They did a great job at Sun n Fun. The format of these shows is very well thought out and I believe it received a recent media award.
Stick to the Subject
This is supposed to be a show about aviation, which is why your listeners, including me, tune in. There are plenty of other venues, too many, to discuss your opinions on world affairs.
Fantastic!
These IMC Radio guys are doing great work to spread the word of aviation. We just might become real fans – and we hope you will too.
