Episode 272 - APG Assemble

Carlos and Armando are away this week so join Nev, Jeff, Nick and Matt for today's show.

In this week's episode everyone's favourite low cost airline has a lot of ups and downs, Nev's favourite airline suffers yet another massive PR disaster and the airport we love to hate is in trouble with it's local council.

In the military there's growing concern over a missing Indian Airforce AN32 and we look at the details of the D-Day 75 memorial flights into Normandy.

In our last piece from Duxford, Nev tells us about the BAC-111 and Nick shares with us his thanks as his retirement begins.
