Episode Notes

Like most bare CPL holders, Michael Bostock followed the instructing path to gain employment within the industry. However, with a love for seaplanes growing and growing, a leap away from the norm saw him adventure around the world, once again chasing his "first job", this time as a seaplane pilot. He talks about flying until midnight in daylight, saving an aircraft from floating off the edge of a 90m waterfall and how he got his dream job in the cockpit of a multi-crew, multi-engine flying boat.
