In this week's show Qantas get their A380's into money making mode, Japan starts to let your pets on board & one passenger decides the flight deck is better than the cabin. Nev shares with us his latest experience on a short hop to Edinburgh and back.
In the military, the FAA shuts down the airspace on the west coast, A B-52 is trekking across the USA, and USAF Special Operations flight makes a stop at Teeside Airport in Newcastle.
