Ep.168 - North Korea Airshow

On our Journalist’s Roundtable discussion in Ep.161 (Trust Me I’m an Aviation Journalist), Rich Cooper mentioned the visit to a North Korea Airshow. We wanted to find out more and Rich introduced us to author and photographer, Gerry Manning, who was there. Gerry joins us to share the experience and we talk airliners and fighter jets as well as helicopters, cargo lifters and microlights. All sourced from behind the ‘iron curtain’! We also explore the food, culture and history of North Korea, as Gerry takes us back through a trip to a “once in a lifetime” air show. Recorded 24th February 2023 Gerry’s book: ‘North Korean Aviation: An Eyewitness Account’ is available through our bookstore https://uk.bookshop.org/a/11161/9781802820379 Link Tree https://linktr.ee/aviationxtended Contact Us: [email protected] Gerry Manning Book https://shop.keypublishing.com/products/north-korean-aviation Aviation Xtended Partners • Royal Aeronautical Society https://www.aerosociety.com/ • Global Aviation Resource http://www.globalaviationresource.com/v2/ • XTPMedia https://www.xtpmedia.co.uk/ • Ellie Carter https://twitter.com/dragongirl94 Show Supporters • The Aviation Historian http://www.theaviationhistorian.com/ • Wings Over New Zealand Show http://cambridgeairforce.org.nz/WONZ_Show.html • Aviation Enthusiasts Book Club https://www.facebook.com/groups/359410134220076 • Aircrew Book Review http://aircrewbookreview.blogspot.com/ You can shop through this Amazon link (No cost to you but a small benefit to us): • https://www.amazon.co.uk/?tag=xtenaeroradi-21&linkCode=ur1 For Aviation and Aerospace Podcasts join https://www.facebook.com/groups/FlightAudioandVideo/
