Behind the Prop

E032 - 7700 (Emergencies)

Episode Summary

This week we touch on several topics involving emergencies. Including probably the most asked question among pilots: when should I declare an emergency!? If I lose my radios? If I lose my alternator? What if my engine is running rough? As usual, Bobby and Wally offer a wealth of experience and knowledge... and even some good stories on this week's all new episode of Behind The Prop!
