Episode 334 - Lick of Paint Required

Join Carlos, Nev, Armando and Matt for this week's show.

In this week's show it's been a bad few weeks for Boeing's 767, Aer Lingus mulls over moving it's Transatlantic base to the UK and there's good news as more airlines ditch their change fees to encourage more people to fly.

In the military a US Navy E2 Hawkeye crashes in Virginia with the crew safely egressing the aircraft and two VERY capable helicopters get some upgrades in Russia and the US.

In this week's Plane Truth we're talking window cracks and Jan Hubner shares with us the aviation in their life.
