Скачать или смотреть Grounded: Casino Express

This episode of Grounded is off to Elko, Nevada where we take a look at the history of Casino Express. Founded specially to operate gaming charters taking gamblers to casinos, Casino Express would go on to operate ad-hoc executive charters as well as provide aircraft operations for Tahoe Air before moving fully into executive charters and rebranding as Xtra Airways. You'll have surely seen the King of Diamonds or the Queen of Hearts 737s, now is the time to find out the story behind those aircraft so sit down, grab a brew and enjoy!

It had been a real struggle getting the latest episode complete, now that I'm flying again I am very, very busy with 1-2 days free per week to research, write, record and compile an episode. In the 2 months since the last episode I had 4 false starts with other airlines before taking on Casino Express, after pulling out all the stops to get it done earlier this month I discovered that the audio had been ruined from about halfway in and thus I would need to re-record it all. Having rushed back from New York last weekend and despite being called off a home-standby to operate a flight to Turkey the next day I have somehow managed to get this completed and online in time for a Saturday release. I honestly will try harder to keep the episodes coming at a much better rate so stay tuned for future episodes :)

I really appreciate any comments and feedback on this or other episodes as well as suggestions for future episodes. Believe me, if I say that your airline is "on the list", it really is :) Check back to see future episodes or better yet, subscribe to catch them as they land and as always, thanks for watching!
