Episode One [Full Flaps] - Interview with Jim Schofield, Chief Spitfire pilot for the Boultbee Flight Academy


Listen Later

Welcome to the Full Flaps edition of Top Landing Gear. This week we feature the entire TLG interview with Boultbee Flight Academy Chief Pilot Jim Schofield. 

Jim flies Spitfires for a living - and if that isn't the coolest job in the world, he was also a test pilot for the F-35. 

All four members of the team travelled down to Goodwood Aerodrome (Formerly RAF Westhampnett) just a week before lockdown to enjoy an hour in his delightful and knowledgeable company. 

A huge thank you to Jim and all at the Boultbee Flight Academy for their time and allowing us to dress up like idiots and take photos of ourselves in front of their hanger of beautiful Spitfires.

You too can fly a Spitfire. See their website for details.
