Or what it’s like to be part of a Chinook helicopter crew, a member of the RAF Tutor aerobatic display team or to work with the Tigers Parachute Display Team?
Well now’s your chance to ask those questions – as part of Swansea Council’s Wales Airshow virtual digital celebration.
Key questions could concern the top speed of a Red Arrows jet as it flies across Swansea Bay or how long it takes to pack a parachute.
The council’s Cultural Services Events and Marketing teams are behind the Wales Airshow – A Digital Celebration #AtHome.
And they’re inviting you to submit written questions or a video question via the Wales Airshow Facebook by noon this Monday, June 15.
