Get the Nose Down

Engine failures are statistically rare, though they do occur. Today’s episode is the fourth in what has become a “series” on engine failures. Host Rob Reider welcomes a pilot who was conducting a flight for a Tuskegee Airmen program to give two young kids a taste of aviation when, just after takeoff, the engine stopped. How all three walked away from the forced landing was partially due to the V-speed the pilot chose on takeoff. Was it Vx or Vy? Sponsored by Avemco
