Description

Join Carlos, Armando, Matt, Major Rick and Micah (from the Airplane Geeks - www.airplanegeeks.com) for this week's PTUK Aviation Podcast recording. In this week's Grey Stuff special we learn that the A10 will continue flying until 2040, RAF Typhoons conduct exercises with the US B1B Lancer and the first Osprey arrives in Japan. In the commercial news some airlines announce their intentions to return to the skies, Jet Blue's New York flypast draws criticism and the UK's Quarantine scenario draws contempt from airline and crew circles. We also take another trip down memory lane as Nev delves back into the airshow archives with some highlights.
