Shownotes

In recognition of the Airplane Geeks reaching episode 111, we have an F111 flying past as we go for a jog. The topics we cover include:

  • Australian BlackHawk in Mayday emergency landing in East Timor
  • Tiger Airways CEO & some key shareholders have sold down their stakes in Tiger
  • Air New Zealand increases number of charters to Japan
  • Domestic traffic still raising
  • Pacific Flier suspends operations
  • Alan Joyce optimistic about increase in corporate travel
  • Some Qantas Q400s with landing gear issues
  • Coalition announces their aviation policy a day before the election (with many items the mention the same as the questions we asked Warren Truss back in episode 39)

You can also watch this video of Steve & Grant recording the Australia Desk. Filmed in the PCDU Studios, it features Steve and his equipment while Grant is looking at his best (mostly because he's not there, he's inside the computer attending via Skype).
