Andrew Soundy wanted to fly since he was a little boy growing up in England.

Not a bad job for a guy who grew up in England dreaming of one day flying into the wild blue yonder.

“Just beautiful panoramic displays right in front of you,” Soundy said. “And from a handling perspective, it’s like a dream.” Soundy was not the first civilian to fly the F-35, but he was the first civilian pilot to graduate from F-35 training at Eglin Air Force Base in northern Florida.Article content

“We’re flying down there at 100 feet. Imagine, that’s like level with the fifth floor or something like that. If you’re on the higher floors, you’re looking down at a plane .”
