Our guest tonight, Elke Robinson, was following her passion of helping others live a healthier life through proper nutrition, when she was bit by the aviation bug.  After earning her private pilot license , a special person in her life suggested she buy Aviation News Journal (aviationnewsjournal.com).  Without any publishing experience, she took the challenge and has built it into a career that speaks to her passion of both avation and healthy living.  Listen in as Elke describes the exciting experiences that make up her life since she took on the challenge that faced her.

Thanks for listening...20 minute Simple Flight , then the LIVE Radio Chat. Enjoy!
