S1, E2: Megan MacDonald is learning to fly. The 39-year-old mother of three and orchardist from central Queensland has 20 hours flying time to her name but is still not permitted to fly solo. Her great uncle, Tony, was not only flying solo after just five hours of training but he was fighting the Germans over the skies of Malta. The Siege of Malta became one of the great air battles of World War II and Tony Boyd was among the best - piloting Tiger Moths and then the legendary Spitfires. In an episode as adventurous as it is poignant, Megan flies in Tony's footsteps and, along the way, changes the way she views her great uncle and her own family.
