This follows on from WONZ Episode 195.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This episode features two speakers. The first is Graeme Gleeson, who joined the Royal Air Force in 1956, via the RNZAF. Following two attempts at flying training (the first interrupted by a broken leg and then tuberculosis), he eventually made it onto a squadron flying Avro Vulcans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graeme talks about flying the Vulcan at low level and about the exercises they did, and what sort of roles they undertook. He then changes tact completely to talk about a later incident in his life when he was the captain of an Air New Zealand Boeing 747 which was hijacked in Fiji. He and his crew managed to foil the hijacker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second speaker is another ex-Cold War pilot, Dick Ingham, who tells a terrific story of flying English Electric Lightnings with the Royal Air Force and as a civilian. Following RAF service he joined BAC and continued to fly the Lightning, including with Roland Beamont, and Dick ended up flying the Lightning for the Saudi Air Force.&nbsp;<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Quick Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/flydc3.co.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fly DC3
