Hurricanes, Hawaiian Getaways & a JetBridge DUI: Pilot Stories You Won’t Believe

Welcome back to the Black Box Aviation Podcast with Tom & Mike — where we talk about aviation, travel, and the things you NEED (and want) to know about flying.

In this episode, we cover it all:
🌪️ Landing in San Juan with Hurricane Erin on the radar
🚨 A Southwest pilot arrested for DUI on the jetbridge
🌴 Hawaiian adventures — snorkeling with manta rays, golfing on lava fields, and the quirks of “island time”
✈️ Plus: lounge drama, tipping debates, and the sweaty palms of an MD-11 landing at SJU

If you’ve ever wondered what aviation looks like behind the cockpit door — this one delivers turbulence, humor, and real talk.
