The 100-day MrBeast challenge to win a jet, a message from the Head of the Aviation Engineering Department at Tishk International University, Rob’s traditional Labor Day message, and Captain Dana returns to Maine.
The MrBeast “100 Day Jet Challenge”
The MrBeast “100 Day Jet Challenge” required a contestant, commercial pilot Armando Carrion, to live entirely inside a $2.5 million Dassault Aviation Hawker 2000 jet for 100 days. If Armando did that, he’d win the jet as a prize. If he stepped outside, he would lose everything.
Obino and Dana.
Armando was our guest in Episode 549. At that time, he had just retired as Special Ops top sergeant from a 21-year career in the U. S. Air Force. His service included aircrew on the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, and he specialized in flying light tactical fixed-wing, as well as special missions. Armando has been a volunteer with the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) for 25 years and commanded two different squadrons. Since retiring, Armando has been flying commercial, charter, and privately.
Brian and Micah speak with Armando and Obino.
