Guests: Jerry Deren, Nick Anderson
Host: Markus Voelter Shownoter: Bastian Hundt
It’s been 377 episodes and we have not yet dedicated one to the F-18. This changes now. In the episode we first talk with Jerry Deren, a former US Navy Hornet pilot who also flew with the Blue Angels; we cover both aspects of his career. In part two we chat with Nick Anderson, former RAAF F-18 pilot (and co-host of the Airline Pilot Guy podcast). We chat about his experience flying the Hornet Down Under, focussing on quirks and funny stories.
There’s also a nice F-18 walkaround on Youtube with Jerry. Check it out!
