Episode 28
Roger...or Roger that...is what a Pilot says all day long. It indicates that a message has been recieved. But...is the message always understood? Are we always on the same page?
Words can mean different things to different people which makes for some hilarious stories in the cockpit and the cabin.
The end of the episode has a great segment about the Aircraft manufacturer Fokker. Roger? Roger that.

Love your podcast, I listen everytime I fly which is often. Sent you latest to a friend of a Flight Attendant. Wonderful stories, please keep it up.

Yes it is Fokker but in North America it tends to be pronouced Folker.
Great your site finally works again, couldn\'t load it for quite a while!! Great show as allways, keep up the good work! Greets from Austria! Holger
I\\\'m so glad you are posting so often :)
Thank you!
Great show!
Another great episode, but I have one question about the Folkker 100 stories. Are you sure that\\\'s the name of the plane? As A Dutchie I was thinking it might have been Fokker instead of Folkker. Fokker is a Dutch airplane manufacturer (well, not anymore since they\\\'re bankrupt now). The Fokker 70 and 100 were quite popular aong US airlines, whereas if I google for Folkker, I don\\\'t get any results that lead to airplanes.
Just wondering. :-)
