Join Carlos, Matt and Armando for this week's programme. We were joined by special guest Rob from SkyDemon - Europe's favourite VFR flight planning software.

In the military The USAF has a way to convert commercial grade Jet-A fuel to military grade JP-8, Numerous aircraft land in Morocco for an exercise, the US Marines explain that they "may have" shaken California awake, and we get a quick UK Warbird update.
