Mandy Hickson


Former Royal Air Force Pilot, Entrepreneur and Motivational Speaker

Mandy Hickson was one of the first female pilots to serve in a front line Tornado GR4 squadron, playing an active role in the conflict in Iraq.

Obsessed with flying from a very young age, Mandy applied to join the RAF while at university. Despite failing the computerised tests twice, instructors passed her application and she was soon on the path to joining an elite group of fast jet pilots. After twenty years service, she now talks about the personal and strategic lessons learned during her time in service.
