Host: Markus Voelter Shownoter: Bastian Hundt

Marija Jovanovich (twitter.com/maz_jovanovich) is a pilot for the Royal Australian Air Force (airforce.gov.au) where she has been flying the P-3 Orion (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_P-3_Orion). We discuss the aircraft, the missions, and some anecdotes. Marija then also attended the USAF Experimental Test Pilot School (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Air_Force_Test_Pilo…), and we talk a bit about the experience of flying a wide range of different aircraft.
