At long last the gang are all back together - Join Carlos, Nev, Armando and Matt for this week's show.
In today's episode we learn that the in-flight water isn't necessarily fit for purpose, a Luton based low cost carrier are a tad careless with a customer's suitcase and it appears that edible packaging is now actually a thing.
In the military there are fresh orders for Sikorsky from the United States Air Force and there's a very heartwarming story of a D-Day veteran who vows to still be parachute jumping when he's 100 years old.
Armando chats to James Stringer during his visit to the Reno Air Races. The link to James's YouTube Channel is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCASPdczHTa-DstEWaqHOLSQ.
