When an airplane has to be moved across a continent or an entire ocean, ferry pilots have to be ready to fly on a moment’s notice. And ferry pilot Margrit Waltz has done a lot of that flying, recently completing her 900th over-ocean crossing in a factory-new TBM 940, one of the fastest single-engine aircraft in the world.
