Join Carlos, Matt and Armando for this week's show. In this week's show a new runway opens in Ireland, KLM get grinchy & one Boeing 737 decides to lose some weight. In the military, the Italian Armed Forces fly their new helicopter and the A321LR puts on it Gray outfit for a new mission. We chat with Ben as he continues his Journey towards the ultimate dream. In part 2 of the interview that we did with Patrick Elliott and Linda Walker at the Seething fly in at the start of July, the couple took their Long EZ around the world.
