Today's Flight Plan

Jim Hoddenbach from DisciplesofFlight.com (http://www.DisciplesofFlight.com) joins us to talk about a wide range of aviation topics.

First we start with Jim's unusual start in aviation, where we was essentially coerced into learning to fly. It wasn't until his solo flight at 5 hours (whoa!) that the lights truly came on. From there, Jim was hooked.

We talk about his career from there, gaining 500 hours in a Cessna 421 flying all over the US and Mexico. Of Jim continued on, getting his commercial, CFI, and eventually his ATP in addition to starting with an airline.

Juggling his maintenance business, and airline job, and a small family, Jim decided to get back to the basics and enjoy flying again. He quit the airline, and went full time 'mom and pop' aviation shop.

But Jim's business and story is so much more than that.

Quitting the airline opened a whole new world to him. Now he was having fun again, and even enjoying some aviation photography and videography.

Jim tells his story of learning to edit videos, photos, and overall do another thing he loves- the 'eye candy' stuff.

If you're looking for a fresh and different view on aviation, Jim and his Disciples of Flight website (http://www.DisciplesofFlight.com) is a great way to get reconnected.

Throttle On, Jim!
