Summary
216 Max discusses the San Diego Learjet crash and how Garmin and
ForeFlight Visual Approaches could have been used by the pilots for
better situation awareness. He also talks with Matt Lane about
using the Virga App to enter PIREPS with the Aviation Weather
Center. A listener talks about his experience with flash
evaporation, which prevented anti-icing fluid from covering his
wings.
