Andrea Gilligan’s guest has a fascinating story... 

Beverley Bass was the first female captain of an American Airlines commercial plane. She was also one of the pilots of the planes in the skies during 9/11 that had to be rerouted. 

That experience has been made into the musical ‘Come From Away’ which is coming to Dublin soon.

Beverley joins Andrea to share her story.
