Display Frequency - The UKAR Podcast

The New Year has brought a fresh crisis at Vulcan To The Sky Trust in Doncaster. Not even a year-and-a-half on from XH558's final flight, the aircraft has been moved from its publicly-accessible hangar and into storage, with the Trust desperately needing £200,000 to enable it to restructure and move forward with sustainability. In this eagerly-awaited special edition of UKAR's popular podcast, Dan O'Hagan sits down for a lengthy conversation with VTTS Chief Executive Robert Pleming to discuss the present and the future, as well as a number of revealing insights into controversial incidents of the project's past.

After a lengthy hiatus, UKAR's much-loved Display Frequency returns with a programme of huge interest to anyone with a fondness for First World War aviation. Dan O'Hagan met up with David Bremner, part of the team behind the reproduction build of a Bristol Scout, incorporating a number of original parts from his grandfather's wartime machine. The completed aircraft appeared as a static attraction at July's Military Pageant at the Shuttleworth Collection, and at time of publication, a first flight is reportedly imminent!

In a special edition of UKAR's popular podcast, Dan O'Hagan meets 87 year-old veteran of World War II Ray Griffiths. Among the subjects covered are Ray's time in the Air Training Corps, surviving the Blitz, and how failing his RAF eye test led to him taking part in the Allied ground assault on Germany, and fighting in the last major land battle of the European war - at the Teutoburger Wald.

Episode Six of UKAR's iTunes smash is a fitting way to round off Display Frequency's first year. Dan O'Hagan travelled to RAF Coningsby in early December to produce a show featuring the past and present of our nation's air power. First, we meet the 2013 Typhoon display pilot, Flt Lt Jamie Norris, who reveals plenty about what's gone into the most eagerly-anticipated RAF fast jet routine in years. Though "off-limits" for our recorded chat, Display Frequency was talked through the new display, and can report that it promises to be the Typhoon display we've all waited for! Next, we move over to Coningsby's Aladdin's Cave, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight hangar, to meet new Officer Commanding BBMF Sqn Ldr Duncan Mason, as well as an in-depth look at the restoration of the Flight's newest toy - Spitfire XVI TE311. Plus, the BBMF's Public Relations Officer Yvonne Masters explains how the latest social media trends are keeping the Flight in the public eye. A full show to see out 2012!
