Summary
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026 and hope you've had a wonderful start to the year. In this week's show: We take a look at the largest airlines in the world by fleet size – and there are a couple of surprises in there; Turkish Airlines are set to build the world's largest cargo terminal; and London Gatwick becomes the UK's most expensive airport for drop-off fees - hiking charges up to £10 per visit. In the military segment: AC-130J Ghostrider aircraft are now touching down at Mildenhall in the UK; and FlyaSpitfire.com launches historic flight experiences at Tatenhill airfield at Burton-on-Trent in Staffordshire. Nev will give us an update on how things are going for our 600th show in May of this year and we'll have another spin back to see another retro airline ad of the week.
