Episode 302 - 'Carrion' Airlines

Join Carlos, Armando and Matt for this week's programme. In today's episode we learn that the biggest airport in East Anglia is denied the expansion it hoped for, the MAX saga rumbles on with further delays expected before it returns to service with new concerns raised over the new SIM time required for pilots, there's a cabin smoke issue for one low cost airline and this week's chart involves the world's busiest cargo airports. It's Part 4 of Nick's interview with John Hutchinson and today they turn to John's commercial aviation journey. We also return to the Dubai Airshow to talk Digital Tower tech with Sascha Wirfs from Frequentis. Why not get in touch with the show and send us some feedback - That's what Nik Codling did!
