    This was a little diffrent. I loved it. She was very interesting, and had a pretty special career. I hope we can se more interviews from female pilots. I know gender shouldn't matter, but this interview were very good. Keep it up.

    I may have to show this to my partner for my 40th 👀 As a boy I wanted to fly the tornado. A dream I never got the chance to fulfil for various reasons. Ahh hey ho. Enjoyed this interview, I found her so easy to listen to. Very clear and knowledgeable. Thanks a lot

    Well done sir!!! Again...
    Was a little surprised (I shouldn't of been) when she said the 300 ranked right up there as her favorite plane... I once spoke with a Navy pilot who flew F-14's, he said of course the F-14 was one of his fav's but his other was the Pitt's!!! He loved to thrash the little plane and he said that little rascal could do things that would rip the extra large fighter into little pieces... Always fun to hear a pilots favorite a/c, you just never know what might pop up :-)

    A brilliant interview Mike, she has lots of energy and very good flow of information going and enthusiasm which I liked, nice to hear she played a crucial part in Op Telic, whilst I was also on the ground, it's interesting to hear from her perspective ☺ it's great to have females on the front line, I know this can be a hot topic of conversation, but she's proven the very important point, they can do it and also do a great job.
    Excellent work Mike, a nice smooth interview ☺

    • @Zone5Aviation
      @Zone5Aviation 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I can somewhat back that up also. In the Classic Flyers Museum in New Zealand, Ray Hannah’s Red flying suit is on display. Ray flew with the Reds during the Gnat period and went on to be a pilot and technical advisor on some major flying movies such as Memphis Belle. So yes they do get to keep their Red suits.

    Ihave photographs of what i assume was Kirsty after landing with a flat tyre and with the other display aircraft having to go around her aircraft after their landing.I am not sure if her aircraft had a flat tyre before or after her landing but must have required competent control.

  • @SingaporeSkaterSam
    @SingaporeSkaterSam 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Good interview; if I may offer feedback: at the 6:40 mark when she said her personality type was more suited to Tornado than Harrier you could have asked why (my guess: she likes to have someone to chat to!), and later 26:20 when she said she left the Reds early, you could have asked her a bit more about that, or did you agree it was off limits?

    • @Aircrewinterview
      @Aircrewinterview  5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Cheers mate. Well I have a plan as I need to generally stick to a time frame and keep to the main subjects, otherwise the interview could just go off on a tangent. Can’t please everyone so I stick to what I want to do as going by committee never works and your second point was not appropriate to ask her.
