Join Carlos, Matt, and Armando for this week's show.
In this week's show a US carrier turns a profit, we celebrate
International Civil Aviation day and one country asks its crews to
wear nappies (diapers) onboard.
In the military, we salute Brigadier General Chuck Yeager, the
first man to break the sound barrier, and a super hornet crew eject
after a take off roll.
In this week's Plane Truth we're learning all about Pilot Licensing.
Jodi Reuger joins us to update us on the challenges that Aviation has thrown at her in 2020. She's an Airshow Pilot, Competition Aerobatic & Tailwheel Instructor and Airline Pilot! Her YouTube channel is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyJhMuL7_-0NzbSkx2cij_A.
