EP114 - "This is a Checklist, Not a Do List" - Hustle and Flow(s)

In this episode, a perfectionist's quest for the perfect checklist leads to an unexpected business acquisition. Barry explains how his journey from "maybe I should get my pilot certificate" turned into owning Checkmate Aviation after his DIY checklist started peeling apart.

Between Ben's tales of impressing passengers with instrument approaches and Brian's near-purchase of a globe-trotting Swift, the crew dives into the art of flows versus checklists, and joke about creating a "midlife version" with extra-large text.


Barry M, who owns Checkmate Aviation, talked about checklists and flows: https://checkmateaviation.com/
