After much internal discussion, we're debating whether we think social media in general and Facebook in particular has actually been a net positive or net negative for this hobby. We all have pros and cons and we put them out there. We also have a bit of a rant about the state of food at airshows these days

Sadly, however, a shadow is cast over this episode by the very late announcement of the changes to the FRIAT 2025 grandstand, which we discuss and heavily criticise.

Round'em up Cowboy! It's been a while since we've pored over the RIAT participants list for you, so we decided to go back down the list of the last few weeks and chat about some of the highlights that are starting to come out now. Dom gives us a taste of the Abingdon nightshoot - although Abingdon has now been postponed, sadly - and then goes off on another of his trademark rants. Tom also tells us about his visit of the Swedish Air Force Flight School where they operate the SK.60.

The UKAR Podcast team travelled to Sywell Aerodrome in Northamptonshire to sit down with Richard Grace, Director and Chief Engineer of Ultimate Warbird Flights, to discuss his upcoming show for this season, Sywell 2024. Having expressed so much excitement over the last few episodes for this we were lucky to have the opportunity to chat with Richard about what the show is going to look like and what airshowgoers can expect to see.
Sadly, a technical issue meant the audio on this episode wasn't perfect, but next episode should be absolutely crystal clear!
