About this episode
Join Carlos, Nev, Jake, Stuart, Armando, Mila and Matt for this week's show. In today's episode we learn (literally first hand) about the sudden demise of BMI Regional, more drone disruption is discovered - this time in Dubai and there are further safety concerns involving Lion Air. In the Military there's controversy over the early retirement of the B1 & B2 Bombers and there's an exciting new partnership with Airbus and Dassault to build a sixth generation fighter. We talk to Stuart and Jake about they plan to further their aviation careers. Apologies for some of the sound and visual problems during this episode.
