In this week's show: LOT Polish Airlines places its first ever Airbus order for 40 A220 aircraft,

Budget airline Jetstar Asia is set to close this summer after over 20 years of operations and The Paris Air Show opened on Monday this week at Le Bourget airfield, with more than 2,400 exhibitors from 48 countries.

In the military: We look at how the Eurofighter Typhoon Fighters Test Integrate AI to Guide Pilots Through Hostile Airspace.

In this week's show: we look at the continuing B787 production delays for American Airlines, a new British Airways policy on the use of social media down route (or anywhere on the line for that matter) and United's decision to temporarily suspend Starlink WiFi on board their aircraft due to reported interference with pilots' communication systems. In the military: The German Air Force is to equip their A400M aircraft with infrared protection systems capability and the story of an RAF pilot's final flight after 45 years in the air. That would actually require quite a lot of fuel and a considerable number of comfort breaks, but hopefully you'll understand what I mean! We'll also be discussing the sad death of prolific author and aviator, Frederick Forsyth who passed away this week aged 86.

Is Global really all its cracked up to be or did they over use the speed tape? BA get fined and Heathrow gets a new control tower or is it just for birds? In the military its all droney & do we need to call Mulder & Scully for what could be an X-File.

In this week's show: Cathay Pacific apologises for serving alcohol to a 3 year old child on a flight to London – nothing like starting them early! London's Heathrow airport reports April 2025 being their busiest April on record - and more IT woes - not at Heathrow for a change, but this time at Stansted airport – time to upgrade from those 56K modems methinks.

In this week's show: Newark Airport ATC has a bit of a moment when it doesn't know where most of its aircraft are, there is massive growth expected from Emirates with around 1500 pilots being recruited, and yet again more inconsistency regarding passport validity to and from some European countries. Nev will have a total meltdown over this I am sure! In the military: We discuss the fly-past of the aircraft involved in the VE80 celebrations in the UK and, in a separate story, the accident that occurred with the Biggin Hill based Spitfire in the south east of England. Joining me this week are Matt, Nev and that extraordinary aviator and loyal listener from the emerald isle, Allan Whyte.

In this week's show we look at the somewhat outrageous story that airlines across Europe could be operating flights with just one pilot at the controls by 2030 – yes you did hear that correctly! We talk about further delays to the launch of the Wizz Air A321XLR service and a second instance of cocaine being found on board a British Airways aircraft – all the gear and no idea clearly. In the military, the RAF tells us that the UKs F-35 Lightning force is ready for full operational capability on major international deployment and the USAF F-16s fire live missiles over the UK in Europe's largest combat readiness drill. And of course we have the ever popular Retro Airline Ad of the Week – this time, we're going back to the 1980's for some T-tail action!

In this week's show: Police escort a Gloucester mum off a Ryanair flight after she is unable to pay for Pringles, British Airways change their boarding rules yet again after a new system rollout and Luton Airport expansion gets the UK Government's go-ahead. We also have some sad news to report about the simulator facility that we used for our 500th show. We'll discuss that at the end of the commercial news segment. In the military: The iconic RAF Red Arrows jets are in danger of being replaced by Russian planes loved by President Putin in a move slammed as 'outrageous' and we look at how the US Air Force equips their F-16s with AI flight systems. We are also going to show Nev's video of his trip to Brooklands on the Concorde simulator again after we had a couple of technical issues with the playback of it last week.
