Episode 291 - The Cat is Out the Bag

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

In today's programme we learn about the official announcement of Flybe's name change, there are some serious concerns about security with one of the low cost airline's flights and a Swiss carrier grounds their A220 fleet.

In the military we talk about about Air-to-Air refuelling Booms, operational trials begin onboard HMS Queen Elizabeth and Boeing says the TX Trainer would make an ideal light fighter.

Chris Griggs shares with us his recent experience aboard an A220 from Gatwick.
