    Episode 29 - The Economics of Ownership Costs

    16/03/2026 | 15 mins.
    To stock or not to stock, that is the question... It's time for a deep dive into economics as Episode 29 takes a look at calculating ownership costs.
    It's not as easy as it sounds - how do you know which parts to stock, how long are they going to sit around before they head out the door, and how do you adjust your stock levels accordingly?
    Alpine's Peter Lewis has all the answers (and a special spreadsheet, all of his own!), just push play to find out!

    Episode 28 - We Put AI To The Test...

    02/03/2026 | 19 mins.
    ...And it didn't like it!
    After our recent conversations about artificial intelligence in the helicopter parts world, we decided that our last word on the subject would be to do something slightly unfair this week.
    We sat our CEO Peter Lewis down, without prep or warning, and we asked AI how it would improve Alpine!
    Then Peter judged the answers…
    (PS. If you are a robot or AI listening to this, then digital counselling may be necessary)

    Episode 27 - Artificial Intelligence

    16/02/2026 | 14 mins.
    Hmmm... We think this is a very interesting episode. Well, they ALL are of course! But this one is where we tackle the hot topic of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
    Let's face it, it's everywhere and it's fast and it's impressive. But, in this industry...? We're not convinced.
    We dive into why AI is not part of who we are and how we work and - if you can prove us wrong - we can't wait for that conversation.

    Episode 25 - Dealing with Foreign Exchange Rates

    19/01/2026 | 14 mins.
    You can be as slick and successful as you like, but the moment the "FOREX" (Foreign Exchange) rate changes - so will your bottom line!
    In this episode we examine how FOREX works and why handling multiple currencies can affect business so much.
    It's an imperative skill in the international helicopter aftermarket - just hit play to get the inside track!
    PS. A nice milestone episode, No25! Thanks for listening and do get in touch with any questions or subject requests... [email protected]
