Episode 15: Dan Ledwood, Sky God

As mentioned on previous episodes, our own Dan Ledwood used to fly for Flybe before they went into administration. We got him to tell us about the route he took to becoming a commercial pilot - learning to fly, getting his CPL and what it was like actually flying passengers around. This is a very personal episode that will be of interest to anyone looking to go into the world of commercial aviation. Plus, find out which airfield café has the best fry-up 😉 To read our reports, features and interviews now that airshows are a thing again, head to https://www.airshows.co.uk If you want to join the discussion, you can head to our forums at https://forums.airshows.co.uk

Om Podcasten

The UK Airshow Review Podcast is an informal chat between the UKAR writing team that originally came about as a response to the effects that the COVID-19 crisis had on the UK airshow scene. We talk about our thoughts and feelings on the British airshow world, invoke memories and reflections from our experiences of the airshow and aviation hobby and offer informed - and not so informed - opinions on the goings-on in the industry. We also host the series Display Frequency, some nine episodes of incisive, professional interview and analysis of the airshow industry hosted and produced by former UKAR Staff member Dan O’Hagan, a global sports broadcaster and Senior Commentator at the Royal International Air Tattoo from 2009-2012.
