About this episode
Join Carlos, Matt, Armando and Nev for this week's show. In this week's show Korean Air are playing with some Lego, we take a look at an airline that doesn't fly passengers or freight and only fly's one way and an Airbus A320 gets a new paint job made of live bees. In the military the USAF has released the findings of an F-16 crash in South Carolina, the British Army gets some new kit, and Scotland's Loch Ness Monster fails to claim a PBY Catalina as a victim. Captain Al chats to Matt about Sudden Cabin Depressurisation in the latest instalment of the hugely popular segment 'The Plane Truth'.
