MAVGEEKS: A Military Aircraft Obsession

The One With All the Planespotters

Listen on

Episode notes

In this week's episode, Canada-based Gini pays our Jamie a little visit, which can only mean one thing... ROADTRIP! (Gini's driving permitting, of course). Reunited at last at RAF Coningsby, they catch up with a selection of its regular visitors: the enthusiastic amateurs and quintessential MavGeeks themselves, the planespotters! Talk about finding your tribe! Then, Gini checks in with a spokesperson for the incoming generation aviation fanatics, the wonderful Polina, better-known as Girl Who Loves Planes - @lifeabroad1 on TikTok. Together, they try to get to the bottom of why aviation captures the imagination in the way it does.

It's a full-blown spotters' special this week!
