Tom’s back from a monster trip across the globe, and he’s got stories to prove it—Shanghai customs chaos, underground Rolex deals with a scooter locker twist, executive lounge mochi mishaps, and a VIP connection in the infamous Fake Market. Plus, Mike teases an upcoming guest who’ll give us the controller’s-eye view of air traffic misunderstandings (and BBQ complaints).
We answer listener Jameson’s question about the current status of the DC-10 in commercial service and spotlight ORBIS, the flying hospital still making a difference worldwide. Also up for discussion: JetBlue’s bold new Dunkin’ livery—orange you curious?
Packed with laughs, insight, and international jetlag, this episode brings you sky-high stories and real talk from the flight deck to the fish tunnels of the Shanghai Aquarium.
