Episode description

Ever wonder what it's like to eject out of a fighter jet?

This week on the Aeronut Podcast, I'm joined by former USAF F-16 and OV-10 pilot Mike "T-DAY" Torrealday. We talk about his time flying the OV-10 Bronco in the Forward Air Controller (FAC) mission, and his over 4,000 hours in the F-16 "Viper". Other topics include his ejection due to an engine failure out of an F-16, his time in Desert Storm as an embedded FAC in a Army tank unit, and much much more!
