🛩️ This Week on Keys To The Jet 🎙️

Red takes the captain’s seat solo to bring you a jam-packed episode full of high-flying info and classic military maintainer humor. We kick things off with the latest in aviation defense news — from cutting-edge fighter upgrades to weird budget decisions (as always). Then we take a trip down memory lane with some wild "This Day in Aviation" history, including that one time someone almost strapped fireworks to a biplane (not really, but close).

And finally — we pay tribute to Charles E. Taylor, the original aircraft mechanic, the dude who literally built the engine for the Wright Brothers. Without him, your jet probably wouldn't even start. We’ll throw in some odd facts, ghostly interviews from beyond the hangar, and maybe a few wrench-throwing sound effects for good measure.

đź”§ Sit back, relax, and enjoy some afterburner for your ears.
