Summary
Join the team for a look at the latest aviation news from around the world and across the UK. In this week's show: The new Western Sydney International Airport scraps painful check-in process; the FAA are going to require 25-hour cockpit voice recorders on new aircraft instead of the existing 2-hour limit; and a man climbs onto a Vueling aircraft in Valencia, causing a two-hour flight delay. In the military segment: An aviation museum in the northwest of the UK has its £10m expansion plan approved; and The Royal Australian Air Force has deployed multiple aircraft to Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada to engage in multinational combat training exercises alongside the RAF from the UK and the USAF. We've got a superb contribution from Shane for this week's Retro Airline Ad of the Week and Nev will be giving us some more details about our 600th show which of course is in May.
