In our first full episode, we discuss why London City Airport (LCY) is a tiny airport with a massive reputation. From its famously steep approach to airport operations, we explore what makes LCY one of the most unique airports in the world. Expect relaxed conversation, fun facts and aviation rabbit holes. We'll see you at the gate!

What controls where planes can fly and how are airways organised? Join us for our second episode where we discuss how planes are kept apart, why planes often don't fly the most direct route and what happened before the days of ATC. We'll see you at the gate!

Ola Note: I mix up feet & meters in this episode, sorry for the mistake!

Aircraft liveries can spark surprisingly passionate debates among aviation fans, so we're diving into the world of airline paint schemes. What is a livery, why do they matter, and which ones do we love most? From iconic classics to special anniversary and promotional designs, we'll be sharing our favourites and exploring the stories behind them. We'll see you at the gate!
