Episode 264 - Too Young to Retire!

from Plane Talking UK Podcast · host Carlos, Nev, Armando & Matt

Join Carlos, Nev, Mila and Matt for this week's show. In today's episode we learn that one low cost airline scraps daily flights from Stansted to Edinburgh, a US carrier begins to retire their 757s (Matt's pretty pleased about that!) and a US low cost carrier announces flights into London. In the military, Armando chats to the Crew Chief for the Dixie Wing P51D Mustang about their project and you can find more information about them and the museum at https://dixiewing.org. We also have a quick chat with Armando, Captain Jeff and John at Armando's official retirement.
