My Interesting Job: Female RAF Pilot - Gruelling Training, Challenges & An Unlikely Climb To The Top

In Conversation With... Mandy Hickson

This week, Georgie is joined by Mandy Hickson, RAF jet pilot and the only female pilot on her Front Line Tornado Squadron. From her unlikely climb to the top to her grueling training process, Mandy explains what it takes to make it into such an elite, male-dominated unit, and describes her experiences completing 45 missions over Iraq, including the tough conditions, the camaraderie (or lack thereof) and the challenges she had to face to succeed.
