The Real Top Gun | Inside the Cockpit with an F-18 Fighter Pilot

North Idaho Experience

Seth Horst and Eric Boardman sit down with Dan, a former Marine Corps F18 Captain, to talk about the career that all kids dream of at one point in their lives. Dan’s Dad was a fighter pilot in Vietnam and we spent some time discussing the differences in the wars they each fought in as well. Dan has almost 300 carrier landings under his belt, which is an impressive feat! We talked about life onboard an aircraft carrier, combat missions into Afghanistan, and Dan’s current occupation as a commercial airline pilot. Can turbulence take down a commercial airline? Listen up and you’ll find out!
