An experienced financial journalist and editor within the property, finance and aviation press, with former employers including Euromoney and Flight Global, Jamie is perfectly placed to give behind-the-scenes insight into what makes a startup do and say as it does. Our discussion covers the hype surrounding AAM, the impact of delayed timelines, what makes a good marketing strategy, how to you keep investors attracted to your vision and much more.

Our discussion centres around Bristow's view of AAM and electrification. What will come first, what are the risk associated with operating new aircraft and how Bristow is supporting new aircraft OEMs with their respective programmes.
