AOPA Live premieres weekly news show

By Janice Wood · May 20, 2012 ·

The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) has unveiled the AOPA Live This Week news broadcast. The new television-style webcast, created by Executive Producer Warren Morningstar and hosted by AOPA Pilot Editor-In-Chief Tom Haines, offers a look at the week in general aviation.

This new show is posted on AOPA Live each Thursday and offers a rundown of the week’s stories. Running 20 to 30 minutes each week, AOPA Live This Week covers issues including manufacturing, regulatory and legislative affairs, and technology, along with visits to interesting GA spots and the experiences AOPA’s editors have along the way.

The show is available now online and will be posted every Thursday morning. This week, the show includes an update on the Hawker Beechcraft bankruptcy, first flight of Honda Aircraft’s latest jet, a report on the C-47 Gooney Bird, and the personal reflections of one of our editors who interviewed the late Evelyn Bryan Johnson, the highest-time woman flight instructor.
