This week our guest on the podcast is someone most listeners will probably have seen at an airshow, seaside or flypast in the last few years leading the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, best known to the world as the Red Arrows. We chatted with Squadron Leader Martin Pert, Red 1 and team leader of the Red Arrows, about their North American tour of 2019 as well as how they've faced and met the challenges of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.

Om Podcasten

The UK Airshow Review Podcast is an informal chat between the UKAR writing team that originally came about as a response to the effects that the COVID-19 crisis had on the UK airshow scene. We talk about our thoughts and feelings on the British airshow world, invoke memories and reflections from our experiences of the airshow and aviation hobby and offer informed - and not so informed - opinions on the goings-on in the industry. We also host the series Display Frequency, some nine episodes of incisive, professional interview and analysis of the airshow industry hosted and produced by former UKAR Staff member Dan O’Hagan, a global sports broadcaster and Senior Commentator at the Royal International Air Tattoo from 2009-2012.
