    2024/10/08

    Tail in hover to piro flips in 9 months... This was a story we had to hear. This week the crew sits down with young Texas based pilot Allen Alsabrook who has only been in the hobby for a short 9 months. We'll learn about all about the challenges young pilots face, what we're doing right to support young pilots, and what we have room to improve on. We hope to feature more young pilots in the future and learn things along the way.

    There's also plenty of news, recaps, an important reminder for all of us, and plenty of shenanigans along the way.
