“Cowpunchers Reunion,” Greg Brown’s Flying Carpet Podcast #28

Ride along with renowned aviator, writer, and photographer Greg Brown in his light airplane, the Flying Carpet, as he searches behind clouds for the real America, experiencing countless aerial adventures along the way.


Listen to “Cowpunchers Reunion: Rough Flight Home,” Greg’s Flying Carpet Podcast Flight #28

Grab your logbook, and join our flying adventure attending a unique “working cowboys” rodeo, and then fleeing thunderstorms on the flight home!

You may remember meeting my cowboy buddy “Baldy” way back in Flying Carpet Podcast Flight #2, “Cowboy Pilot,” in which Jean and I were first invited to the annual “Arizona Cowpuncher’s Reunion.” If you don’t remember that episode, or haven’t heard it, you might want to get to know Baldy via that episode before starting this one.

Regardless, I predict you’ll get a kick out of attending this unique “working cowboys” rodeo, and experiencing our piloting travails flying there and back.

Okay, everyone, hop aboard my Flying Carpet, snug up your seatbelts, and prepare for takeoff on today’s adventure, “Cowpunchers Reunion: Rough Flight Home.”

“Vertigo! Some Lessons a Pilot Never Forgets…” Greg Brown’s Flying Carpet Podcast #25

Ride along with renowned aviator, writer, and photographer Greg Brown in his light airplane, the Flying Carpet, as he searches behind clouds for the real America, experiencing countless aerial adventures along the way.


Listen to “Vertigo!” Greg’s Flying Carpet Podcast Flight #25

Some Lessons a Pilot Never Forgets…

“So this must be Vertigo,” I thought. Nausea circled my gut like the snowflakes orbiting my propeller. I peered out the windshield for landmarks, but snow obscured all but a tiny spot of ground beneath me, even at an altitude of only a thousand feet.

To make matters worse, my VOR navigational receiver had obviously failed. How could I possibly have drifted so far off course as it suggested, on a flight of only 40 miles.

It was almost Christmas, and I was a young University of Illinois student transporting precious parts for my motorcycle home to Champaign…
