Learning to Fly...Together

Come on into the Eaglerock Portable Studio as Captain Rob and Tina record there first podcast together in over two years. Our lives continue to be busy and in an effort to start producing podcasts again, we recorded this at the kitchen table with a portable podcasting setup. A little degradation in the recording quality is in order so that we can record more often. Also our regular studio hasn't been put back together so we hope you don't mind the recording. We learned a few things that we can do to improve the next portable recording of our next epidsode in the next couple of weeks. We are joined by our 16 year old son who we think previous listeners will remember as Trim Tab. We talk a little about what has been going on and then get right into listener feedback. This episode also serves as an opportunity for Captain Rob and Tina to get there feet wet again at podcasting. We appreciate your patience with us. For those folks interested in the ground lesson Captin Rob gives Tina and their son, be sure to listen to the Lessons Feed. That episode is the same as this one but we continue recording into a lesson after the 41 minute mark. It is good to be back and we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.

See ya next episode in less than two weeks....really! Captain Rob and Tina

Well hello everyone! For the first time in six weeks I was able to get down in the studio and hook everything back up. That meant that I better record something. This is not a normal episode but an audio update. For those who haven't heard, Captain Rob had an medical emergency and the Eaglerock Hangar has been a place of recovery and not one of flying or podcasting lately. That is about to change as we get back in the saddle again and plan to have an episode for you every 2 weeks starting the last week of April. We have a lot plans for both feeds. On the Together feed we plan to bring you a lot of stuff regarding life, kids, emergencies, career planning, life with 3 teenagers, college planning, and hopefully some laughs as this is the best medicine. On the Lessons feed we are planning to bring you video and audio content from within the hangar (Since Rob can't Fly). We still have some flying lessons to edit and put out along with ground briefings of preparation for Tina and Ryan's written test. Captain Rob also plans to do a series of systems discussions on the Cessna 150 and maybe the Boeing 737. Please give us your thoughts and comments to our new voicemail line at (206) 495-3111. You can also e-mail us at learningtoflytogether at gmail.com Todays song is "I Want My Flying Car" by Tom Smith and of course our intro music is "Learn to Fly" by Josh Woodard. Check them both out at the Podsafe Music Network.

In this quick little episode we explain where we have been and what we are going to do to get a more reliable release schedule going. We will be using the many internet vehicles out there to get Tina and I together behind a mic. Will be using Skype, Utterz, Talkshoe.

By popular demand Tina and I produced this vidcast for you. All photos and video footage were taken either by Tina or myself here at the Eaglerock airstrip and surrounding area. We wanted you to have a visual of our lives as you listen along in future audio episodes. The pictures are from our collection we have taken over the last couple of years around the strip here. The video footage is from a lesson and flight one evening in October. Sorry for the movement....I am acting as an instructor and cameraman. Please enjoy and be sure to let us know how you like it. All music was from the Podsafe Music Network and is credited in the video.

Finally, Finally got Tina back in the studio so we could do an episode. It has been like pulling teeth. Listen to the episode and see what Rob has had the privilege to live with lately.

We woke up this morning and didn't have any milk or coffee. What is a guy to do. We are 20 minutes driving or 20 minutes flying to the nearest store. Flying is more fun so we flew to a nearby town where the Safeway is across the street from the airport. We picked up our coffee and milk, had breakfast and flew home. This footage is us in our airplane descending and landing at our airstrip and taxing to our home.

I just had to post this mini podcast to let you know where we are. Because of the tradegy of our friend and co-worker's death in his Cessna 185 we still haven't gotten into the studio. I have been assisting the family and Tina is not able to get to the microphone without breaking down in tears. I have to leave for a 5 day Mexico trip and won't be back until Wednesday. That means we should have a new episode next Friday. In the mean time please catch up with earlier episodes and leave us feedback. Thanks and 73 Rob and Tina

We wanted to release a update to let you know why it has been over a week since our last episode. This is a short episode on both feeds to update you and let you know of our proposed release schedule of every 10 days. I mentioned our theartre group of CYT that we are busy with for the next two weeks. It is one of the reasons we haven't been in the Eaglerock Hangar Studio.

Episode 2 of our Podcast. This episode is focused more on an actual lesson that I presented to Tina and Aileron in preparation for solo. For now we plan to have our odd number episodes cover the more social, family and relational topics and should be more entertaining as it relates to Learning to Fly, Love, Live and Parent together. The even episodes such as this one, will cover more of the technical aspects of learning to fly and will be segments of our acutal flight and ground lessons here at the Eaglerock Hangar.

Well here is our first real episode after our introduction. Late night doing all the editing as we try to experiment and find a format that works for us and you (Please let us know). This episode ended up being 42 minutes...a little longer than we want but we think you may enjoy it. Here are the show notes for this episode: Introduction Eaglerock Hangar visited by Norwegians Trying to explain Podcasting to family Exposing the real Aileron Captain Rob explains why you can't use Cell phones and other Devices in the jet Go get some more coffee How our family is compared to an airplane Whose on first?....Nav Lights Some Family History and mention of Tina's 94 year old Grandmother We welcome all feedback, comments and recommendations.

This is a short episode recorded to explain and test a seperate feed. If it works there should be a seperate feed for "The Lessons". As explained in the first episode and show notes, when Rob is actually teaching Tina a ground lesson, that lesson will be posted as a seperate feed. This way those not interested in "lesson content" don't have to listen on the main feed. For those who just want the lesson content, they can download and subscibe to The Lessons. We will see how this works. We are unfamiliar with how our podcasting host works split feeds. So if it doesn't work right away then you at least know what we are trying to accomplish. Please be patient. Now that we have our feet wet, will get on with reporting the story and get some flying done. Rob learningtoflytogether@gmail.com Voicemail: 206-984-2359

Well Here it Goes! This is our first episode and serves as a introduction of the Learning to Fly Together Podcast. In this episode we introduce ourselves and try to describe the vision and purpose of launching the podcast. Like all new endeavours it may be a little rough around the edges but we had fun doing it and hope you have fun listening. We don't know of any couples who have taken on teaching a spouse to fly and lived to tell about it so we are going to tell the story as it happens (incase we don't live to tell about it). We will let you know about all and will have fun doing it. When the podcast gets technical, as Rob teaches the actual meat of learning to fly, will will split the feed and run a concurrent "lesson" type of podcast. We will do the same for episodes when we talk about the technical aspects of ham radio and computers. This way the listeners who want the "human story" and more entertaining part of our experience, don't have to listen to the overly technical sessions. For those who will be interested in the technical episodes we will give you the feed details for those specific episodes as they occur. Let us know what you think and we look forward to getting to know you. Contact us by leaving comments here or e-mailing us at learningtoflytogether@gmail.com. You may also leave a voicemail message at 206-984-2359 (2FLY).
