We ain’t talkin’ ‘bout practice
We talkin’ ‘bout business. You know, I don’t really write these things. They sort of just right themselves. And then sometimes they sort of don’t. This one sort of didn’t…… but sort of did. You know? I’m more convinced than ever that people complicate business...
Doppelgänger(s)
I don’t want to be a product of my environment; I want my environment to be a product of me. I’m finding it hard to believe we’re already ¼ of the way through the year. Yet here we are. But you know what? It was a productive first quarter, I: Made twice-baked...
I have something to sell you
And I’m motivated. My goals this year literally depend on it. It’s got to be somewhat refreshing to hear someone speak so openly, right? I mean, how much of general aviation is filled with bullshit designed to avoid talking about the simple truths of running a...
By the Numbers (redux)
I don’t usually like to recycle content or themes, but I recently took a peek at some of our trip trends for 2023 and was reminded that I looked at 2022 trip trends early last year. Which is a much wordier than is necessary way of saying that I thought it’d be...

The Art of Bureaucracy
I’m like the Matt Stone and Trey Parker of blog posts. I don’t even start writing until 24 hours before publishing to make sure it’s maximally topical and relevant. Or, at least, that’s what I tell myself in an effort to justify my procrastination. Try as I might,...
The most boring post you’ll ever see from me…..
I promise, I’ll do everything in my power to never be this boring again. Just because it’s boring, though, doesn’t mean it isn’t important. I – very grudgingly – will admit that tax considerations are often one of the most critical factors in people’s analysis of...
I’m evolving.
Well, sort of. I mean, these definitely are and I’m maybe growing up a little too. When we started these back in the day (you know, like five months ago), we originally set out with a vision to pull back the covers on the private aviation space and I originally...
