Harvard Extreme’s Rick Volker

Tonight on Warbird Radio LIVE!, Matt Jolley will interview world famous warbird and aerobatics pilot Rick Volker.

WARBIRD RADIO – Rick Volker is a man who knows how to make the best of a bad situation. A few years ago Volker experienced an engine failure in his Sukhoi Su-26. He spotted a small grass strip off his wingtip and landed, completely unaware that inside the airfield’s hangar were some of the world’s most sought after warbirds. He would soon become the aviator who flew them. Talk about turning a bad situation into a good one!

Rick will join Matt Jolley this week on Warbird Radio LIVE! to talk about his new air show act “Harvard Extreme”. The premise is simple: fly the Harvard like a modern aerobatic aeroplane. Volker has even competed with his Harvard in aerobatic competitions. Hear his story this Tuesday (2/24/15) at 8pm EASTERN on Warbird Radio LIVE!
