Sorry for the delay – I’ve just realised that you were asking a question!

I’ve been flying for about 23 years which includes 18 years of military flying and I think it’s a case of seen it, done it! Believe me, nothing-quite compares with planning, briefing and flying as part of a 10 ship NVG sortie at 100 ft, 100 knots and 2 rotor spans, it’s kind of difficult to top that… Or as part of a helicopter display team for a season in the UK – Great fun! I fly for the Police now and life will be pretty sedentary for the near future..

Having said that, I have never regarded my job as normal and would rather retire than do anything else!
