Our latest podcast is finally here!  Apologies for the delay, but life has been a bit crazy.

Today we focus on the ill-fated flight of Alaska Airlines flight #261, a flight from Puerto Vallarta to San Francisco and continuing on to Seattle, that crashed into the ocean off of Los Angeles.  This subject is quite near to me, because people I know and love lost loved ones on this flight.  But, as with most accidents, there was good that came out of this crash, though the price paid in lives lost was great.

As usual, you can download the podcast at this link, or find us on iTunes, or just listen below.
