Episode 429 - Premium Cabins and Twitter Spats

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

In this week's show Ryanair has fun on Twitter, we look at another mid air fight & one rather large aircraft has a wheely bad time on take off.

In the military the US Air Force needs YOU to teach new pilots and what DOES happen to retired drone aircraft?

We're excited to share with you our 4th part of our series with Captain Nick in conversation with Chris Burwell as they discuss his new book 'Nine Lives'.

It's also lunchtime at the Jersey International Air Show; Carlos and Nev tell us more.
