Episode 238 - Smarties and a Glass of Water

Join Carlos, Nev (eventually!), Jodi Armando and Matt for a very special episode.

In a week where the longest ever direct flight takes off for the first time we discover that BA are planning to operate an A380 into Dubai, sweeping changes are promised at Delta and an Air India plane has a coming together with a wall.

We are so honoured to have had Jodi Rueger join us on this week's show and we had a great chat about her love of flying, her career and the world of Acrobatic flying. You can find out more about her by looking at her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyJhMuL7_-0NzbSkx2cij_A or search social media for @quotafiller.
