Join Matt, a nervous flyer, and Captain Al, a seasoned Airbus A320 airline pilot as they discuss some myths and frequently asked questions about all things aviation. This week Matt asks if airplanes have keys and if not, how do pilots start an airplane? What is the barking dog sound on the A320 and why do passengers hear it during start up? Captain Al takes us through a start up of a commercial aircraft from cold and dark all the way to taxiing to the runway.
This week Captain Al answers questions all about loading and balancing of an aircraft. How centre of gravity is calculated and what considerations need to be taken when carrying unusual cargo.
Join Carlos, Matt, Nev and Armando for an avtastic start to your weekend! If you didn't get to see our Women in Aviation Special take a look here: https://youtu.be/fyrm1oST95U. In this week's show the lasers are back attacking pilots, a flight deck crew has a fight with cabin crew over a toilet, and an airline buys up some old BA 747 sims. In the military there maybe a new fighter in the works for 2029 , a new F15EX gets delivered and a Italian Navy’s First Female Strike Fighter Pilot Earns her Wings of Gold. Captain Al talks with Matt about Callsigns in the latest Plane Truths and in the penultimate part of Captain Nick's chat with George Lee MBE we learn about flying with the famous Mr Sato of the Japanese Glider manufacturer, Baron Hilton of the Hilton family and about earning his prestigious 1000km gliding award.

This episode is part one of two. Alexander (“Captain Al”) Hagan began his career during the War Years of the FDNY, in 1973, when he was assigned to 36 Engine in Harlem. After several years in Harlem, Al studied and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant, and was assigned to 44 Truck in the South Bronx. Al would later promote again, and assume command of 43 Truck in Spanish Harlem. After 35 years of service in the field, in some of the busiest units in the FDNY, Captain Al decided to become a part of union leadership. Al began his union service as the Captain's Rep, and then the President of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association (IAFF Local 854). After 41 years of service to the people of New York City and the Firefighters and Fire Officers of the FDNY, Captain Al retired, leaving behind a career and legacy for the ages. Jim McNamara hosts.
Join Carlos, Matt, Armando and Brian Coleman for this week's show. In this week's show we learn the last ever A380 has been assembled, the A321 flying from the US to the UK is unveiled and a time when most airlines are retiring their passenger 747's, one airline is refurbishing theirs. In the military a vintage WWII B-25 Mitchell makes a forced landing in California and we learn that the U-2 will be a regular tenant at the famous RAF Fairford. Captain Nick is in conversation with Ian Palmer as he talks candidly in part three about his battle with alcohol and we go slightly off-topic as Captain Al and Matt talk to Weather forecaster Dan Holley about his unusual hobby of storm chasing.
