Episode 100 – Part 4 A New Way to Fly with Al Bowers – *Giveaway*
If you listen carefully enough you can hear the moment that our minds are blown. Al Bowers, retired NASA Scientist and engineer, honors us with a detailed conversation about his Prandlt-D Project. Join us as we talk about how it came about, its challenges, and how it may change aviation completely. This project did more than tested the theory, but ensured repeatable and reliable/usable proof that this concept wasn’t just groundbreaking, but could change aviation and other industries going forward towards a greener tomorrow. You might just have that mind-blowing moment yourself. Al also answers listener questions.
