Flying for the Joy of It with Serrhel Adams

In this episode of the Air Facts Podcast , we talk with longtime contributor Dr. Serrhel Adams about his widely discussed article, Mea Culpa: Confessions of a Joyful Pilot . The piece struck a chord with readers for its honest reflection on why flying should sometimes be about joy—not just procedures and precision. Serrhel shares how his Cub flights over Northwest Arkansas help him reconnect with the wonder of flight, why safety and enjoyment don’t have to be opposites, and how his aviation photography captures that same spirit of freedom.
