We don’t discipline employees who exhibit initiative to get to the top.

Every year there is a week long airshow at Oshkosh, Wisconsin, in the north eastern part of the United States, that attracts thousands of aviation enthusiasts from around the world. This airshow is called Airventure. In recent years the fledgling aviation podcast fraternity has, if able, made their way there for an annual get together called Podapalooza. Podcasts, for those that don’t know, are downloadable “radio style” shows which focus specifically on topics of interest.  For anyone with an interest in aviation, there are a range of different podcasts and styles. If you enjoy aviation podcasts consider helping out a starving podcaster… throw them a bone, a donation,  or moral support — they really do a great job in fostering the aviation community. This episode of Thromby Air is a tribute to the aviation podcasters. Here’s a few Aviation Podcasts to get you started – there are many more too. A full list can be found at The Voices in Your Head: Plane Crazy Down Under (Australia) Airplane Geeks (USA) Flaps (UK) Uncontrolled Airspace (USA) Airspeed...
