Former USMC Hornet pilot, Tim “Nugs” Golden, shares what it was like becoming a Marine, being selected to fly the F/A-18, and what it was like to fly the jet with some great stories throughout. 

In the second half, Nugs shares how his RAF Tornado F3 exchange came about, how the process works, training on the jet with 56 Squadron and moving on to his frontline SQN, “The Tremblers”. 

We get a great insight into what it was like to fly and live in the UK and how it was similar and different to the US and the USMC.  Support the Show.
