Jason from TFP has been an inspiration since before I started Flight Chops.
I was listening to his pod cast in 2008 when I wasn’t even current at the time!
Here’s the link to the episode that he was inspired to make after talking to me while I was planning this IFR flight test debrief episode:

FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
