Hangar49 ·

2021/06/27

There’s been a heat wave in the US and Canada where we produce Hangar 49. It’s kinda like flying too close to the sun. Hopefully, the wax in our wings won’t melt.

Hangar49 ·

2021/04/01

Whew! We got our March show uploaded without a minute to spare. Someday, we'll be able to get these shows done quicker by speeding up our commute with an electric air taxi. We just need to find a charging station. Learn how in our featured interview. Plus, news, music, movies, and comedy in this jam-packed show. As always, we have a few technical issues. This time it's a bad auto-level on Al's voice. It's OK. He never has much to say anyway..... Interview: Joshua Portman/Electric Aeroplanes

Yes, We Take Requests

Hangar49 ·

2021/01/17

Since this show was founded by ex-disc jockeys, we love our listeners. And since one of our hosts was once a struggling musician, we know that getting a free plug on the radio for your song (or movie) can make a big difference. So, we take requests. This month, our song suggestion came from John F. and our movie idea came from Marty D. Notice that we didn’t use their last names. There may be a reason for that. You’ll just have to listen to the show. Movie: Horizon Line Interview: Country

Ya got Any Beeman's?

Hangar49 ·

2020/12/09

As we sat down in the Hangar 49 studios to record this show on December 8, 2020 word that general Chuck Yeager had passed away had just been announced. We re-vamped our show to feature his book and an interview. We also reached back about 100 shows and dusted off our review of the film, “The Right Stuff.” And, as the General would say, “Ya, got any Beeman’s, “ his favorite chewing gum.

We Are Not Bots!

2020/11/08

With all the fakery on the internet, robocalls to your telephone, and screaming pundits on your TV, it’s nice to find a place where real, honest, and truthful aviation information and humor abounds. OK, maybe everything on this show is not totally true, we might make up a factoid or two, make an error, or even (gasp) screw up big-time.

We are a couple of busy guys. Between Tony's work as an award-winning photographer and Al's career as a voiceover artist, we barely have time for lunch, much less flying around and doing podcasts, but here we are again.

2020/04/01

We live in crazy times. We never heard of "social distancing" until now. Luckily, aviation is a great way to put some distance between us.

The "Multi-Accent" Show

Hangar49 ·

2019/11/15

In this episode, Hangar 49 spans the globe in a quest to discover how many different English language accents we could cram into one show. Four isn’t too bad. We go to Las Vegas, Oshkosh, Peru, Costa Rica, Panama, and Mexico to bring you the latest in aviation entertainment. And, if you're hungry, we found a really nice restaurant in Salzburg, Austria you might enjoy. Oh, and say hello to our foreign correspondent, Grant McHerron, who traveled from down under on special assignment for Hangar 49.

We Are In Harm's Way (Again)

Hangar49 ·

2019/09/15

Yep. When we take this show on the road, sometimes we get in harm’s way. First Tony had motorhome engine problems. Then, Al had motorhome engine problems. We’re lucky we weren’t trying to fly an airplane on the road. (That would be a whole different issue.)
