Aired on October 4, 2021

Doug and Drew are joined by Avgeek Travel Agent and LAX Dorkfest friend Eric. Eric's flexible schedule allows him to fly on inauagural and final flights and his stories make the rest of us avgeeks  with regular jobs jealous. He tells us about how he got into aviaton and how he is finding a niche being a travel agent as the profession has gone through a downturn. 

We also discuss:

  • LAX announced they will test a new earthquake early warning system

  • United fined for long tarmac delays

  • Delta wants airlines to share their no-fly lists

  • Listener poll - should there be a federal no-fly list?
