So There I Was

She Hit Me! Episode 35


Listen Later

Our second hour with "Bonnie" as she relates her time in the fleet flying A-7's and Hornets - and one of the funniest practical jokes ever played on someone intent on being an accurate 'bomber.’
She tells us about her rough start at SouthWest. Then things get real, and we learn how close SWA-1380 came to being a disaster. Heroic and dedicated airmanship saved the day. Period. Full stop.
