Summary

In an unusual episode, Jonny and Richard are on an aeroplane heading to an unspecified location for reasons that will become clear in a future show. Topics discussed include the Airbus Sport Quattro, pilot speak, sawing someone in half, taking doves into shops, the ride quality of planes, flying without any training if you had to, a banana-shaped Jaguar, pointless Euro business class, and living next door to Lee Majors.
