Episode 418 - Oshkosh, the PilotEdge and a SimVenture

Join Carlos, Nev and Armando (on tape) for a big pile of aviation fun.

In this week's episode the UK's legacy carrier announces more cancellations up to the end of October and Nev's original lift home requires a little assistance on arrival at Copenhagen!

Armando is flying this week but instead of military news, he brings us an interview with Kevin Meyers from PilotEdge, a popular Air Traffic Control add-on to your favourite flight simulator.
