Join Carlos, Nev, Armando and a very quiet Matt for this week's programme. In this week's show there's more bad news for Rolls Royce as they alert operators to Trent engine blades cracking, everyone's favourite low cost carrier smashes their 7 star rating and suggestions are made that simulated evacuations should be more realistic. In the military a helicopter gets shot at while training in the US state of Virginia and the Air Force is 3D printing engine components. In this week's Plane Truth we learn all about the Black Box and Tanya Weinman tells us all about the Aviation in her life.
