Plane Talking UK's Podcast


Carlos, Nev, Armando and Matt bring you a weekly Podcast that will focus on the Commercial and Military Aviation news relating to us long suffering members of the general public.

Join Nev, Armando, Andy and Matt for this week's show.

In this week's show, more changes at ITA Airways in Italy, new union agreements at Ryanair and an A320neo lands with only 200kg of fuel in its tanks. That might mean tea with no biscuits with the Chief Pilot.
  
In the military, an F-35 crashes near Hill Air Force Base in Utah (the pilot is safe), we discuss former UK military pilots training China’s Air Force and we have a MILITARY LIST! (Of affordable warbirds)

We’re excited to share with you our 5th part of our series with Captain Nick in conversation with Chris Burwell as they discuss his new book ‘Nine Lives’.
