Recorded LIVE from Airventure 2023, it's FMP Live from OSH!
We had a really fantastic opportunity to meet with the crew of the Super Guppy at Airventure. Climb up into the flight deck with us as we talk to Pilot Brett Pugsley, and Flight Engineer Nelson Reyes. They tell us all about what it takes to make this unique aircraft fly.
Special thank you to the crew and NASA's Office of Communications for this great opportunity.

Episode 42: Girls in Aviation Day
Come one, come all to experience the joy of aviation! In this week’s episode, we were delighted to speak with a previous guest, Ambyr Peterson, as well as Mina Carlson, about Women in Aviation International’s event called Girls in Aviation Day. This is a worldwide event held annually by local WAI chapters for girls (and boys!) to experience different areas of aviation.
The Stars of the North chapter of Minnesota currently hosts the largest GIAD event, and they are proud to announce it will be back this year on September 23, 2023 at Flying Cloud Airport (FCM). Along with discussing how the event operates, we also discuss the history of WAI, the global and local impact of GIAD, and what new things you can expect going to the Stars of the North GIAD this year!
If you’re planning on going to the Minnesota GIAD, please sign up in advance at https://starsofthenorth.org/girls-in-aviation-day
