This is the second part of my interview with Jean-Benoît , a French pilot for a major Middle Eastern airline. In this episode, you’ll learn how a pilot’s body deals with night flights and jetlags, what turbulences are and whether they are dangerous. You’ll hear Jean-Benoît’s point of view regarding the strengthening of safety rules since the September 11th terror attacks and you’ll find out how many female pilots are in command of your plane journeys!
If you missed the first part of the interview, listen to episode 70
