In this holiday edition of the Flying Midwest Podcast, we tune into The Holiday ATIS — where festive NOTAMs, Midwest aviation trivia, and New Year aviation goals all share the same frequency. We talk about the lighter side of aviation during the holidays, including the real ForeFlight holiday Easter eggs pilots have spotted over the years, a Midwest-themed aviation trivia challenge, and how pilots can actually stick to their aviation resolutions instead of abandoning them by February. From Santa’s sleigh wake turbulence to setting realistic flying goals for 2026, this episode blends pilot humor with practical advice — because aviation should be fun, but never careless.
