Congratulations guys!! I’ve started listening to your first episode and can’t wait to subscribe when it appears in iTunes. Sounds really professional! Keep it up and I’ll talk it up. Can’t wait to meet you both in a couple of months. Cheers!
Well done guys. Not a plane geek myself but it was interesting and easy to listen to. Very professional.
Thanks for the welcoming comments – we’re really excited to be here and to see the support building. We were watching the feed stats every few hours but have settled down to once or twice a day now :)
