A Scots dad and his pilot daughter have spent the last day of his 40-year aviation career working together at Prestwick Airport
A team effort by colleagues at Jet2.com and NATS made the dream come true for dad and daughter and as Lauren flew the Boeing 737-800 aircraft, her father was able to make his final transmission to Lauren’s aircraft. The transmission was understandably a proud and emotional moment for Lauren, who says that her father has been a guiding figure during her lifelong passion for aviation.
"I’ll miss hearing his voice over the radio at work but it’s been an absolute pleasure to share these final moments of his career in such a fitting way.”
