Meeting the pilots who have to battle with delays, deal with a sick passenger and negotiate landing at one of the world's most challenging airports in the heart of the Alps. Captain Emma Henderson faces technical breakdowns and severe turbulence.

We meet the pilots who have to trouble-shoot a cockpit warning light mid-flight and witness rare meteorological displays at 35-thousand feet. We will also meet the cadets who will take to the skies for the first time with paying passengers.

We meet the pilots flying out of two of easyJet's regional bases: Manchester and Newcastle and we join Senior First Officer Iris De Kan on her mission to become a Captain. First Officer Ajit and Captain Steve have four short domestic flights.
