Matthias is a Red Bull Air Race World Champion and member of the Flying Bulls who grew up on the airfield his parents built in Tannheim, Germany, and in this episode he takes us through that journey, from his first flight at age three to becoming Germany's youngest flight instructor, joining Red Bull's aviation team, winning the world championship, and returning home to run the family airfield.

In this episode of Between Two Wings, we sit down with Bruno and Juliana, a husband-and-wife duo who have centered their personal and professional lives around their passion for general aviation. Bruno grew up in Brazil, where flying was more of a daydream than a reality. His curiosity led him across continents, eventually landing him (and occasionally getting him stuck) behind the controls of one of his famed Grumman aircraft. Juliana’s journey to the right seat came with a little more hesitation when compared to her co-pilot. Through many trips with Bruno and a week at Osh, she found confidence and eventually an outlet within the aviation community.
