  • Death in the Red Arrows - When the Display is More Important than Safety

    (Re-recorded and shorted to 50 mins)


    There will always be a lack of necessary external oversight of flight safety and organisational competence on the most visible Squadron in the RAF.


    The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows, have demonstrated that they are the most dangerous and failing squadron in the RAF, yet continue to not be given the proper resources to function safely.


    The same recommendations continue to be ignored with the excuse that the aircraft is soon to retire, only for it to be extended.


    If I had been flying the aircraft at RAF Valley on 20 March 2018, with the same experience and currencies of the pilot - I too would have crashed, as would any of my team.

  • Transitioning Out of the Military & Change

    What is like to leave the military after 20 years and why is change so hard to do?


    Well, it wasn't an easy road for me, that was for sure. I had some expectations that didn't materialise, they weren't true and it was pretty apparent that I was institutionalised.


    Coming out of the Services for me was like going form ORDER to CHOAS *truth*.


    This is why I am building courses for people who are also going through change events in their lives - more in the podcast.

  • Restoring a Hawker Typhoon to Flying Condition!

    Interview with Sam Worthington-Leese of the Hawker Typhoon Preservation Group.


    The Hawker Typhoon Preservation Group (Registered UK Charity no.1167143) is overseeing the restoration of RB396 with the intention of returning the aircraft to flight powered by a Napier Sabre engine – something that hasn’t been seen or heard, for nearly 70 years.


    Once complete, this legendary aircraft will be the only airworthy Hawker Typhoon in the world, and the only genuine combat veteran in existence. She will serve as a centrepiece for a Heritage Centre, established with the intention of preserving the history and educating the public with regard to this iconic and forgotten aircraft.
