Episode 279 - Osh 2019 Fun and Games

Join Carlos, Matt and Max Trescott for this week's programme. In this episode we learn that the staff help buy their airline a new plane, there are disgruntled 'low cost carrier' passengers aboard a very hot Boeing 737 and we discover that some Airbus 350's are having to be turned off and on again due to some software bugs! We chat to Max about the Cirrus Vision Jet and his love of teaching while Armando chats to Amanda Simpson from Airbus. He also finds out about the amazing adventure that Sandra and Barry Payne are having in their Comanche 250.
