Safe Aerospace Podcast

by Americans for Safe Aerospace

What are pilots really seeing in our skies, and why aren't we talking about it? The Safe Aerospace Podcast brings together military aviators, commercial pilots, air traffic controllers, aerospace professionals, and policymakers to tackle one of aviation's most pressing and least discussed challenges: UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena) in controlled airspace. Hosted by Former F/A-18 pilot, Ryan Graves from Americans for Safe Aerospace, the podcast goes beyond the headlines to explore what UAP encounters mean for flight safety, national security, and the future of airspace transparency. Each episode features firsthand accounts from credentialed professionals, analysis of emerging policy developments, and conversations with the researchers and lawmakers working to bring scientific rigor and institutional accountability to a long-stigmatized issue.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been a follower of this topic since the 2017 NYT article opened my mind and the 2023 congressional hearings fully challenged and opened my worldview. Really liked the first two episodes here. I like hearing the observations of people who think critically about their experience and have some context against which to evaluate their experience (like the pilot/flight/military tech backgrounds). I recommend this!
