2013 Typhoon display

Last week we published my feature with Flt Lt Jamie Norris, the Royal Air Force’s 2013 Typhoon display pilot, on Global Aviation Resource.

You can find the feature here, and I am delighted to say that it has proved extremely popular!

More podcasts

Afternoon all

Two more podcasts to tell you about today – my regular appearance as part of the Aviation Xtended team, and also a second guest slot discussing Arsenal!

You can find the latest episode of Xtended here, and it’s a good un, with a guest co-host from the Air League and a superb interview re engineering the mighty Typhoon.

Meanwhile, the latest episode of the GGC, or at least part one of what turned in to an epic Arsenal discussion, is here.

If you have a listen, then I hope you enjoy them…….

Cheers

Gareth

A ‘Fighter Pilot’ contact from the past, looking firmly to the future

Within the past few weeks, thanks to the wonders of social media, I have been in regular contact with Martin Oxborrow…..

Those of you familiar with the BBC TV series ‘Fighter Pilot’, and I know there are many of you, will recognise Martin’s name straight away.

Martin was one of the stars of that show, one of the candidates followed through the course of his flying training as he strived to achieve his dream of becoming a fast jet pilot in the Royal Air Force.
