In this week's show a 787 is damaged as an engine collides with a Jet Bridge, Wizz Air announce they are taking legal action against Ryanair over the Buzz brand and there's a new radio station launched especially for cabin crew.

In the military Boris Johnson's newly painted aircraft is employed in an operational role and an Afghan Air Force A-29 is confirmed to have crashed in the Northeast part of the country.

In this week's Plane Truths Matt talks to Captain Al about how aircraft are powered on the ground and in the air aside from its engines.
