E040 - More on Emergencies

Several weeks ago we touched on emergencies in a prior episode. But this week we decided to dig a little deeper and share some more stories. We'll give you a few tools to add to your tool belt that just may come in handy someday. Wally shares a compelling story of a recent airline flight he had that required him to declare an emergency, and Bobby brings up the classic "field vs. road" debate. Lots of good stuff to talk about in this week's all new episode of Behind The Prop!
