Questions for the Captain! 👨✈️ (Patreon)
Content
Hi all. In a few days I'll be interviewing a very special guest for the channel. Kevin Sullivan was the captain of Qantas flight 72, an Airbus A330 which lost control over the Indian Ocean in 2008 as a result of a severe computer malfunction.
His actions on that day, and those of his crew, saved the lives of all 315 people.
Kevin has written a fantastic book about the incident, titled No Man's Land (which I'd encourage you to read if you're interested, it's both fascinating and harrowing).
He was a Top Gun pilot with the US Navy, before joining Qantas in the 1980s, where he flew the 747 and 767, and then the A330.
I'll be releasing an episode on this incident here on Patreon this weekend, and then doing a full interview with the captain, which I will upload in its entirety only on Patreon.
I'm really excited to get the opportunity to talk to Kevin, and I'd love to get your questions for him.
