Flight 4 – Col. Terry Virts from One More Orbit

S1:E164 | 13th November 2020

Flight 4: we are joined by Col. Terry Virts – Ex F-16 pilot, Astronaut and someone who docked the endeavour and then landed it back on earth. Author of ‘How to Astronaut?’ – (51 short essays to make you laugh and say WOW!) Also, the man who directed the film and created so many special segments within the film – from, wide-eyed school children speaking directly with the crew, to the technical support teams supplied by Qatar Private Aviation as well as the G650ER – an incredible aircraft, along with an interesting insight into Carbon Underground as well as the commitment of all the ground crews on the various parts of the journey – many stories within the story and of course the ORBIT 8 — special individuals who came together to break the record and will now have so many special memories to share and re-tell.
