Transcript snippet from ‘Red Arrows To 747 Pilot | Sqn Ldr Andy Wyatt’ podcast
Chris and Andy
C – Andy it’s great you could join us, thank you.
A – Chris it’s an absolute pleasure to be here.
C – Yeah it’s great, having a podcast you get to speak to so many people you have things in common with. Out of that sharing you get great conversation. Sometimes I forget to press record on the podcast! I’ve lost all that, that’s consigned to history now. So, my gosh, we hooked up on linked in, and I’m very fortunate to meet people on linked in with such rich histories and experiences such as yours Andy. From the Red Arrows to commercial airline pilot. Anyone who grew up in my era watched a film called Airplane, it was a spoof of all the jumbo jet movies of the seventies and eighties.
