Flying in the Face of Fear, an interview with Fighter Pilot Colonel Kim "KC" Campbell
What's it like to be a real Top Gun? Well colonel Kim KC Campbell tells her harrowing tale of surviving almost being shot down over Baghdad during Operation Freedom.
From being inspired to be an Air Force Academy graduate after watching the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, to being deployed to Kuwait shortly after 911, to her miraculous landing, Kim opens up about overcoming fear, and focusing on getting her A-10 Warthog back to base.
"When I landed I couldn't see the damage. But I climbed down and was greeted by the Marine Corps firefighters,...and they look at me, then the plane then back at me, and lined up to shake my hand...and then I looked. There were over 600 bullet holes in the jet, and a gaping hole in the fuselage."
This is an interview you must listen to as Kim shares her epic experience of survival. Kim is the real Top Gun.
