    Real Pilot Answers S2E3 - Can You Safely Land on Snow?
    2023/01/14
    Would love to take my grandchildren to see Santa in Lapland, but driving on snow scares me. The idea of landing on snow and ice is terrifying. How can that be safe? Can mobile phones, iPads etc. really cause an issue to planes? Does it matter what type of clothes I wear on a plane?

    Real Pilot Answers S2E2 - How Do You Land In Fog?
    2023/01/07
    How do pilots land in fog when you can't see out the window? Why do my ears pop and is it dangerous to my health? I would love to travel with my son who has Aspergers syndrome, but I'm really worried how he would cope with the airport and flight. What support, if any, is there for people with disabilities?

    Real Pilot Answers S2E1 - Do Pilots Get Scared?
    2023/01/06
    Today's topics answered by Peter Cox, who is a 737-800 Captain for a major UK leisure airline are: I was on a flight recently (at the end of the season) with only a few passengers on board yet the plane still seemed to take the entire runway to take off and didn’t accelerate very quickly, was there a problem as I was worried it didn’t feel right? Have you ever been scared whilst flying? Over the summer our holiday flight (from Manchester to Teneriefe) seemed to go a weird route out over Ireland first. I am not normally a nervous passenger, but this made me worried something was going on that the pilots didn’t want to tell us about?
