Episode One - with Chief Pilot, LLewis Ingamells

Melvyn welcomes Chief Pilot, Capt Llewis Ingamells who tells of his childhood dream to become an LNAA pilot.

What happens when the 999 call comes into HQ? What part do pilots play in every mission? And why is the iconic AW 169 helicopter so special? Tune in to find out.

Our second podcast, due out later in the month features CEO, Karen Joblin and Thirza Dixon, LNAA’s first Fundraising Manager. Together they reminisce about those early days when LNAA only flew if funds were available and compare how far our crews have come since the first mission on 13 May 1994.
