Join Carlos, Matt, Nev, Armando and Missionary Bush Pilot Ryan for a jam packed show. We take a look at the commercial and military news and we venture to Papua New Guinea with our guest to talk about life flying as a bush pilot there.
In the news a Avro RJ85 lands at Norwich airport but not under its own power, Duty free is set to change and drones are being flown into active volcanoes "on purpose". And In the military seal team six see some serious action and the Blue Angels Legacy Hornets are going to conduct a final Pensacola flyover.
Elsewhere, Matt talks to Captain Al about fuel planning, we've got feedback from Jacob Darlington-Brown and Richard Adams.
As it's remembrance day coming up soon in the UK, we remember the fallen in the Great War with a touching tribute that Matt and Captain Nick have put together about the iconic poem, "In Flanders Fields". You might want to check out Ryan's channel at: https://www.youtube.com/user/NTMApilot
