Episode synopsis
In the first episode, Andy and Sedge must sit their fast jet driving test at the fighter pilot base at RAF Valley in Anglesey. Until now both have only flown propeller planes. For Andy a combination of training and a secondment to the States has meant this has been a long time coming. He says: “Yeah, it’s a big moment. I’ve been waiting nine years in the RAF to get into a fast jet so it’s going to be good. I’ll let you know how I feel at the end of it.”
