Chris and Ben
C – Ben, how are you brother?
B – I’m doing good how are you?
C – Running out of clever replies, that probably aren’t really that clever.
B – When someone asks me this at work or whatever my usual reply when someone asks me how are you? I answer loving life. No matter what type of day it is, it’s positive affirmation. Sometimes good is just as sufficient, but I think if you say that enough times it gets contagious and other people start to say it whether they mean it or not.
C – I don’t mean to be rude to my guests but they’ve got to sort out the way they fricking speak man. All this “I’m good”. This is England, we’re British and we’re very proud about that. We’re not nationalistic but we’re proud not to have to copy other countries. People can speak how they want, of course they can but I do think though.

Chris and Aaron
C – Aaron, how are you brother?
A – I’m good how are you?
C – Yeah, really well thank you? Which part of the States are you in?
A – I’m up in Virginia on the Eastern shore.
C – Okay, Norfolk is in Virginia right?
A – It’s about a three hour drive South from D.C.
C – Yeah I was in Virginia when I was in the marines I was on an aircraft carrier for a year, and we stopped in Virginia and we hired a car and drove up to Washington. That was a hell of a trip.
A – I bet, especially on the shoot up.
C – So Aaron, I think I should point out you’re are the first Navy Seal we’ve had on the show. We’ve heard a lot of SAS and some SBS guys from this side of the pond, but from the Atlantic side of America you’re the first Navy Seal. So thank you and congratulations…

Tornado Pilot | Tim Davies | Fast Jet Performance
Join me for a fascinating chat with former Tornado pilot Tim Davies from Fast Jet Performance as we discuss everything you ever wanted to know about flying a state-of-the-art attack plane. Our LIVE chat Q&A is HERE: https://youtu.be/H2mdyckFd5Y
Transcript snippet from ‘Tornado Pilot | Tim Davies’ podcast
Chris and Tim
C – Tim, how are you brother?
T – Good thanks Chris, lovely to be hear.
C – Yes, now we got to pretend like we haven’t been talking for the last hour.
T – You’ve ruined everything!
C – Our secret is out.
T – Exactly
C – Well my gosh, again I’m so lucky doing what I do Tim you know. I really get to chat, not only to the most fascinating people on the planet, but all the people if I was to have my choice in life, who am I going to chat to today, it’s going to be people like yourself. So thank you so much for coming and sharing your wisdom and your experience. A fighter pilot, how did that come about?
T – You know it’s interesting because I was actually a bomber pilot. When you say you’re a bomber pilot to the civilian community they don’t understand what that is because they’ve seen Top Gun and you know I get it. I was a Tornado GR4 pilot, which is the aircraft you can see just on the back over here. As we said previously before we came on air, father was in the military. Fathers, fathers, father was in the military. So I ended up going into the military…

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.
