Ground Effect is a podcast about the thrill of learning to fly. We discuss all things general aviation: what inspired pilots to first take up flying, the challenges of flight training, pilot stories, visual flying in Europe (and elsewhere), safety, light aircraft and life as a licensed pilot. Along the way, I'll be sharing my own progress as a student pilot in Paris, France.

6. Troy, the pilot who's done it all

Épisode 6

dimanche 7 mars 2021 • Durée 52:07

In episode 6 of the Ground Effect podcast (recorded in May 2020), we head to North America to speak to Troy Baxter, a pilot whose international career is as diverse as it is surprising. From island-hopping in the Carribean, flying in an active warzone in Afghanistan and doing medevac in Canada (to name but a few of his adventures), Troy has done it all.

This is the first of a two-part episode. In part 1, we talk about:

How the Covid-19 pandemic has affected his flying
Growing up in a military base in Nova Scotia
How his training was subsidised by the Canadian government
Completing a very competitive flight training program at Seneca College
Difficulties in his flight training
Training in the Cessna 172, the Beech Baron and the Bonanza
How he didn’t touch a plane for 2 years after completing flight training
Island-hopping on the Twin Otter and the Islander in Sint Maarten in the Caribbean
Returning to Canada to do medevac flying on the King Air 100
Flying the Dash-7 across international waters for the United Nations
Flying civilian in an active war-zone in Afghanistan (and having to deal with rocket attacks)
Flying the Dash-7 from Africa to North America (via the Middle East, Europe and the North Atlantic)

We hope you enjoy this episode. And if you do, rest assured that there’s a lot more in part 2, which will be posted in the coming weeks.

5. Tom, the all-new private pilot

Épisode 5

lundi 21 janvier 2019 • Durée 53:55

In episode 5, we go back to the European general aviation and speak with Tom, a newly-certificated private pilot in the Arcachon region around Bordeaux. This episode was recorded in late August, the same month Tom completed his checkride.

We talk about:

How taking to pilots at a local bar sparked his interest in aviation
How he discovered piloting after a scenic aerial tour of the bassin d'Arcachon
Why made aviation different from what he was studying at the time
The rather unique way they celebrate a first solo at his aéroclub
What his training and his PPL checkrire were like and what he found most challenging
Why you shouldn't hold the nose up too long on a Robin DR-400 after touchdown
What his plans are, now that he's officially a pilot
His message to student pilots and those aspiring to take up flying

Links to some things we mention in this episode:

Tom's Instagram account: aviation.tom
His home base of Arcachon (LFCH, La Teste de Buch)
SDVFR, a free application for air navigation for iOS and Android
Matt Guthmiller, who circumnavigated the globe on his single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza
TheCandourist, who embarked with a friend on a round-the-world trip on a Cessna 210 (and who was joined for the Atlantic crossing by Matt).

We hope you enjoy the episode and wish Tom all the best in his journey to join the big guys! If you have any thoughts, ideas or suggestions for us, or you want to be a guest in the podcast, we'd love to hear from you!

4. Neha Puri, Nepalese A320 pilot

Épisode 4

lundi 7 janvier 2019 • Durée 01:08:38

In episode 4, we speak with Neha Puri, who recently transitioned from flying the twin-engine Jetstream 41 on domestic routes in Nepal to flying the A320 to international destinations. This is the second of two interviews recorded in the summer of 2018 in Nepal, which I took forever to edit and put out (sorry Neha and my listeners!). But here it is, it's a really fun episode and we hope the wait will have been worth it!

We talk to Neha about:

Her primarily flight training in Cebu, in the Philippines
How she transitioned to flying the BAe Jetstream 41 twin-engine turboprop, of which only 100 were ever built, in Nepal
What it was like to be trained by a family member (who also happens to be our guest in the previous episode of this podcast)
What it’s like to be a female pilot in what is still a male-dominated industry
The international organisation of women pilots spearheaded by Amelia Earhart called the Ninety-Nines that financed her A320 type rating
What it’s like transitioning from flying domestic routes on a twin prop to international ones on a sophisticated, modern Airbus jet with a lot more automation

Ground Effect is a farily new podcast with a lot to learn so we enthusiastically welcome your thoughts, comments and suggestions either by email (groundeffect[@]neustadt[.]fr) or via Twitter (@thegroundeffect).

3. Binod Puri, Nepalese Mountain Flying Pilot

Épisode 3

lundi 30 juillet 2018 • Durée 57:34

Holiday mountain flying special! In episode 3, we speak to senior Nepalese mountain flying captain Binod Puri right after he flies me to the "world's most dangerous airport" and back on a Czech-built Let 410 Turbolet. Lukla's Tenzing-Hillary airport is an exceptional altiport: a one-way 1.729ft (527m) sloped runway at an altitude of 9.2000ft (2800m) with an 11.7% gradient, a cliff on one end and a stone wall on the other, towering mountains on all sides and unpredictable, fast-changing weather (as we'll see). Should you ever wish to scale Mount Sagarmatha, aka Everest, this is the closest serviced airport you can fly to.

We talk about:

Why the margin of error is extremely low in Lukla
Some of the risks involved in mountain flying
STOL (Short Take Off and Landing) aircraft you might see
How (and where) Nepalese pilots train
The importance of CRM (cockpit resource management)
The language that pilots use on the radio
How aviation has changed over the years in Nepal
Advice for new pilots and anxious passengers

If you are unfamiliar with Lukla airport, this video of the approach on YouTube should give you a good idea of what it's like. You'll also find another video on the Ground Effect Podcast Instagram page I took from inside the cockpit that shows how close to the mountains we get and how at multiple occasions you get to hear the EGPWS (Enhanced Ground Proxity Warning Sensor) screaming "Terain! Pull up!".

Thank you once again to to Cpt. Puri for this incredible experience and for taking the time to chat with us about his 37 years of experience as a mountain flying pilot in Nepal.

As always, we're a new podcast with a lot to learn so send us your thoughts, comments and suggestions either by email (ground.effect[@]neustadt[.]fr) or via Twitter (@thegroundeffect).

2. Frédéric, Flight Instructor and Physiotherapist

Épisode 2

jeudi 28 juin 2018 • Durée 43:59

In our second episode, we speak to my flight instructor Frédéric. I've been flying with Frédéric at my aéroclub for a couple of months now and this episode was chance to get to know what made him want to change careers and become a pilot relatively late in life, what it's like to teach someone else how to fly and what his own goals are as a pilot.

We also talk about:

Why he feels like he has aviation in his genes
What made him want to pursue his hobby and get his license
What drew him to acrobatic flying
How bad landings are a simply a necessary part of flight training
What it's like to teach someone how to fly and learn to trust them
Tips for the beginning student pilot
How, regardless of experience, a pilot has to always be learning

Frédéric mention these things in the podcast:

The Right Stuff, a historical drama about the early test pilots involved in cutting-edge research at Edwards Air Force Base in the 60s, including the legendary Chuck Yeager.
L'avionnaire, a very thorough online encyclopaedia on aviation, with articles on everything from history, aerodynamics and instrument flying to weather, engines and de-icing (in French).

A huge thanks to Frédéric for taking the time to chat. We hope you enjoy this episode.

This is a fairly new podcast and we've still got a lot to learn, so we've love to hear from you! Send us your thoughts, comments and suggestions either by email (ground.effect[@]neustadt[.]fr) or via Twitter (@thegroundeffect).

Some technical terms we use in the podcast (I'll be careful to explain these more in-podcast in upcoming episodes):

ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot License (European equivalent of ATP)
CPL - Commercial Pilot License
VFR - Visual Flight Rules (or visual flying, by looking out the window)
IFR - Instrument Flight Rules (or instrument flying, regardless of visibility)
IR - Instrument Rating (rating that allows you to fly IFR)
ME - Multi-Engine (rating that allows you to fly multi-engine planes)
MCCJOC - Multi-crew Cooperation & Jet Orientation Course
Class Alfa - Class A (as oposed to B, C, D, E, F or G) airspace, usually reserved for commercial aircraft, mostly jets.
