This week, see the WTHJH podcast in a slightly different environment. We're up in the sky. Yup, you got it, we recorded the podcast while flying in a Cessna 172 over Yosemite Valley. This makes the sound a little different this time: voices more tinny and there's a definite engine sound rumbling away in the background. Play it loud in your car and it sounds like you're actually in the plane with us. We know....we tried it.
We fly out, with Simon a little preoccupied as he's keeping the plane in the air. Greg gives a great commentary on the progress of the flight.
We head over the Central Valley of Northern California, the bread basket of the state, and onto the breathtaking views of Yosemite Valley, covered in snow.
After a little sight seeing (ie flying around in circles), we head to Mariposa Airport for a spot of local burger.
We stumble upon, as we so frequently do, a great local bar that serves an amazing burger. The bar is full of some really interesting characters, but we're far too interested in the food as we're starving by this point.
After a pleasant walk back to the airport (and a walk to the bar, lets not forget that too!) we head home and see the wonderful views of the Bay Area welcoming us.
Greg took some video of the flight, seen here.
Catch you all next week when our feet will be firmly back on terra firma.
Lets us know what you think of this experimental podcast too. To record this, we had to stick a small microphone in our headsets ... rather uncomfortable after 2 hours. However, we've just got hold of some new equipment that means we can record without having microphones stuck in our pilot headsets so hopefully the sound should improve next time, should this podcast go down well. Let us know what you think. Email us at wthjh@yahoo.com or leave a comment on our Facebook fan page.
If you've somehow stumbled across this from somewhere other than our web site, you can check that out here.
G&S
Peace and KMSMA.
