Brandon Anderson had a goal.  That was to bring aviation into his life in a big way.  As he is an independent technology consultant, the path to reaching his goal was not so clearly defined.  Diving in with both feet, Brandon headed out to the west coast to get on the fast track to earning his CFI, and then followed with his CFII.  Listen in as Marc learns about Brandon's first year as a CFI, with over 650 hours flown.  The experiences, the surprises, and the opportunities that have come as a result of his investment, makes for an inspiring and meaningful discussion. The conversation moved to the Pilot / Controller relationship and what are the ingredients to making it an effective partnership.  Turns out, some key concepts, like Communication, Trust, and Focus are every bit as important as in any other partnership, like marriage, business, and social relationship.  After listening, please fill out the contact form on the RADIO page and let us know your thoughts!                           =============== ​We hope you enjoy listening as much as we love talking to others who share our passion for aviation.  Please subscribe to the Podcast via iTunes or your favorite broadcast source, and rate, review, and let us know what you think! ​ ​​​​BLUE SKIES and TAILWINDS!!!
