In the video below, Guilding takes you on a 360 tour of the skies above Gloucester, travelling at speeds of up to 160 miles an hour atop a vintage biplane. IFRAME: https://www.youtube.com/embed/DXC7YwIfd8 “The most difficult part is the fact that it's extremely physically demanding," reveals Guilding. "From the ground, it looks quite elegant when you’re watching it and sort of graceful, but if you ever have a go yourself you will realise that actually the wind pressure, the turbulence, it all creates a very difficult environment.” Guilding, who works full-time for the Breitling Wingwalkers alongside her sister Stella, traded her traditional 9-to-5 in favour of the high-flying role several years ago. “I had a very conventional career in a office based job and I just thought one day there has got to be more to life than sitting in an office," says the 31-year-old. "I heard they were recruiting for a new wingwalker, I decided to apply and three years later here I am.” Asked what she loves about her role, Guilding replies: "travelling up to 160mph, the feeling that that gives you is just absolutely incredible." "It is the best job in the world." Future episodes in this series will give you a behind-the-scenes glimpse at some of the nation’s most fun and unusual jobs, including a stunt driver and a librarian at the world-famous Bodleian Libraries in Oxford. In last week’s episode, the star of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory took viewers on a 360 tour of the popular West End show.
