About this episode
In this week's show: Alaska Airlines secures slots for Heathrow launch; someone experiments whether ChatGPT can land an Airbus A320 after telling it both pilots are missing; and KLM retires its first Boeing 737 aircraft after 25 years of operations. In the military: There are massive new campsite plans for RIAT 2026 near RAF Fairford and a Damaged B-2 stealth bomber returns to frontline duty after a four-year repair from landing gear collapse. We'll have the usual Retro Airline Ad of the Week as well as a reminder of the excellent competition that Allan Whyte has set for you all. Nev will also give us an update on the plans for the 600th show in May of next year. Spaces are running out quickly, so be sure to let us know if you would like to attend. More news on how to do that later in the show.
