Episode 55 – Les Marshall Part Three

Host: Dave Homewood Guest: Les Marshall Duration: 45 minutes 47 seconds Topic: Les Marshall completes his story of a life in aviation by talking about his lovely Ryan PT-22 trainer that is based at Ardmore Airport, and how he managed to find and buy it. He also has a few more tales of his flying in the DC-3 topdressers, and some very scary stories of incidents in the air where pure luck and flying skill have got him through. Many thanks to Paul McSweeny and Steve Cox of Pioneer Aero Restorations Ltd for setting up this interview with Les, and for providing a great list of topics for discussion that they recalled from many years of hearing Les’s tales over smoko.
