Episode 74: RIAT roundup, Abingdon and Tom's Swedish Sorrow

The UK Airshow Review Podcast

Show Notes

Round'em up Cowboy! It's been a while since we've pored over the RIAT participants list for you, so we decided to go back down the list of the last few weeks and chat about some of the highlights that are starting to come out now. Dom gives us a taste of the Abingdon nightshoot - although Abingdon has now been postponed, sadly - and then goes off on another of his trademark rants. Tom also tells us about his visit of the Swedish Air Force Flight School where they operate the SK.60.

Apologies for the sound quality on this one! Apparently Sam's computer decided his PS5 controller was the perfect microphone...
