Flying to an international destination often requires detailed preparations, but returning to the U.S. requires separate planning. “One of the things that we always do is hold a pre-trip briefing with all of those involved,” said Greg Kulis, a pilot and security coordinator for a large flight department in the Midwest. “Everybody has a role in that pre-trip planning.” Learn how operators can successfully plan ahead to ensure a smooth reentry process in this week’s NBAA Flight Plan podcast.
The NBAA Flight Plan podcast, which ran from 2009 to 2025, provided an overview of important developments affecting NBAA members, and the association’s work to advocate for their interest. The archive of past episodes will remain available for your enjoyment. Please note that no new episodes will be released.
