For some, aviation is a religion. Not sure that’s good or bad, but it is what it is. There is something spiritual about flying, so it makes sense.

I came up with 10 Aviation Commandments, most of them fairly ‘serious’ and spot on. They’re mostly safety-related, but many are related to growing and improving as an aviator.

Without spoiling too much, they are…

  1. THOU SHALT BE SAFE
  2. THOU SHALT AVIATE, NAVIGATE, COMMUNICATE — IN ORDER
  3. THOU SHALT FIGHT HAZARDOUS ATTITUDES
  4. THOU SHALT STRIVE FOR PROFESSIONALISM
  5. THOU SHALT PAY IT FORWARD
  6. THOU SHALT BE A FOREVER STUDENT
  7. THOU SHALT HAVE FUN ALONG THE WAY
  8. THOU SHALT CHOOSE A GOOD SCHOOL & INSTRUCTOR
  9. THOU SHALT NOT GET DISCOURAGED
  10. THOU SHALT MAKE A PILGRIMAGE TO AIRVENTURE

Come join for this podcast and enjoy some good insight.
