Avalon Airshow 2019: Day 3

Avalon Airshow 2019: Day 3

Author: Momentum Media February 28, 2019 Duration: 1:36:53
Day-3 of the Avalon Airshow has been a lot bigger than the previous 2 with many more people filing through the gates.
We saw some amazing flying displays from the F-35 Lightning and the USAF F-22 Raptor and at the end of the F-35 demo the 2 jets formed up and gave us a couple of amazing passes and 1st time photo opportunities.
Later in the day a global hawk arrived from Guam. It landed perfectly, taxied in and it was parked up down the far end of the aerodrome on display.
In terms of podcasts I sat down with another 6 guests including Dick Smith to talk about MH370 as well as Neale Prescott ad Ray Cage from Lockheed Martin Australia.

You'll find the Australian Aviation Podcast Network right at the intersection of runway tarmac and boardroom strategy. Produced by Momentum Media, this collection of shows digs into the stories that define flight in this part of the world, moving well beyond the headlines. Each episode feels like a hangar chat with the people who know the industry best-pilots, engineers, executives, and analysts-offering a grounded perspective on everything from the engineering marvels of new aircraft to the complex logistics of running an airline. We explore the sheer joy and freedom of recreational flying just as deeply as the tough commercial decisions that keep the sector aloft. Whether it's a discussion on sustainable fuel technologies, the revival of regional routes, or the history behind a beloved aircraft type, the conversation is always driven by genuine curiosity. Tune in for clear, informed talk that connects the dots between the business of aviation and the passion that fuels it, all delivered with a distinct Aussie lens. This podcast network is for anyone who feels that lift of anticipation when an aircraft throttles down the runway, or who simply wants to understand the forces that shape how we connect across this vast continent and beyond.
