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

In this week's show we take a look at the aviation news from the Ukraine, British Airways has a meltdown & its not of old aircraft & we look at crufts 2022 but in an aviation way .

In the military we look at the situation in Ukraine, pay respect to Colonel "Grey Wolf" Oksanchenko, and we get confirmation that the world's heaviest airplane has indeed been destroyed.

It was so good to see so many people at the 400th show representing listeners and the podcast community, it was truly incredible and we take a moment or two to reminisce on a stunning weekend.
