Hi guys, you are my ‘go to’ aviation podcast, keep up the great work!
In episode 322 you briefly mentioned the Boeing hydrofoils. They run/sailed/flew in a few places which I believe included Honk Kong and the west coast of the USA, but I used to see them on the River Thames in London as they ran a commuter service over to mainland Europe.
Here’s a few of my snaps from back in the day:

Thanks again for all the information, news and entertainment

I would guess that this is not the first time that this and other +2G landings have happened to this aircraft. It would be interesting to see the FDR and see how many times it took to fracture this axle off the NOSEWHEEL!
I haven’t time for all 48 minutes of this. I would like to listen to one or two stories though. Please add an index! It would take very little effort and would be so useful. As it is I won’t be listening to any of it :(.
Anybody notice the weird mistake in the Frontier incident NTSB report? It says that the airline reported the incident in March, a full month before the incident occurred in April.
I’ve heard a lot of people delivering speeches and talks in my 76 years of life, you guys are among the best! Great delivery, interesting, factual, and entertaining.
Although I’m not an aviator, I always enjoy learning and you guys are great teachers. Thanks so much for this wonderful broadcast!
Hi, can we have the transcript please?
