The discussion in the news segment also includes an interview with the Save The Southend Airshow team. Along with a fabulous ‘Things You Never Knew About’ segment from Max and a packed listener feedback section which includes questions for the hosts, it’s a long episode but loaded with Avgeekery.

There is also the usual concoction of out-takes to amuse you.
