Join Carlos, Matt, Nev and Armando for this week's programme.

In this week's show we go camping inside an airbus which has its very own tent, a Ryanair flight decides to save on weight & leaves some passengers behind & Southwest unveil a very special livery. In the military the US decide to get rid of some C130's in a downsizing mission, USAF F35's take off from the world's finest aircraft carrier & the USAF Signs a Contract For Ultra-Short Takeoff Aircraft.
