The Wing Wag

Aviation was born with the balloon when, in 1783, the first manned hot air balloon rose off the French soil.  But ever since the Wright brothers made their first flight out of Kitty Hawk in 1903, the balloon has been vastly overshadowed by the airplane.

With the advent of space tourism, the balloon could rise again to the forefront of aviation!  Join Matthew and I as we talk about the company Space Perspective and their goal to bring tourists to space suspended from a balloon.

What is The Wing Wag?

"The Wing Wag" is a podcast for all things general aviation. Are tailwheel or nosewheel airplanes better? What is it like to own an airplane? How do you pick the right flight school? All these and more will be answered on "The Wing Wag".

Your pilot will be Jack Olinde, an aviator and owner of an aviation company and flight school in Central Florida. Each episode, Jack will navigate an aviation topic either flying solo or with a copilot.

Join us as we take to the skies in each episode, and if you're out flying make sure to give someone a wing wag!
