Tim and Pieter are joined by pilot and STEM ambassador Ellie Carter to look at the news and take a reflective view on 2020, looking for both the positive and less positive changes that affected the aviation and aerospace industry.
Ellie Carter
In this segment Ellie tells us of the engine failure she suffered whilst flying a Decathlon. Pieter talks lovingly about the Tu-22 Blinder book he got for Christmas and Tim regales a story about his fathers early drone models. And there are a few outtakes!
