Summary

In this week's show: Lufthansa is to sell 2 of its Boeing 747-8s to the US Air Force for Government work; Spaceport Cornwall partners with the National Drone Hub to expand uncrewed systems testing; and United Airlines touches down in Adelaide for the first time this month. In the military segment: We celebrate the last of the British Harrier flights which took place 15 years ago. We have the usual Retro Airline Ad of the Week segment along with an update on our plans for the 600th show in May of next year – spaces are filling up very quickly for this currently! And we'll be announcing the winner of the competition to win the fantastic Irish Air Spectacular 3 book and the 2026 calendar, kindly donated to us by Allan Whyte.
