In the Military the Eurofighters pass the milestone 500,000 flying hours and MP's call for RAF Leeming to become the Red Arrow's new home.
In our last piece from Oshkosh 2018, Captain Al talks to the guys from Foreflight about their incredible software.
2018 marks the centenary of the end of the Great War and we close the show with a very moving piece from Captain Nick who shares with us the story of the Unknown Warrior.
