Strap in and hit the burners — Red is flying solo this week on Keys To The Jet, bringing you the wild, dusty, and downright legendary history of Edwards Air Force Base!

We’re talking about how a random patch of dirt turned into the proving ground for every crazy aircraft idea you can imagine.

Along the way, Red rants about why old-school pilots were built different (spoiler alert: broomsticks and bourbon), hits you with some wild "This Day in Aviation" facts, and runs through the latest aviation news — because the skies are still full of speed, innovation, and a little bit of insanity.
