La pregunta que le hicimos por Whatsapp fue: ¿crees que la guerra de Ucrania ha favorecido la venta del F-35 en Europa?. La respuesta: un recordatorio de la historia del programa desde que se llamaba JSF, un análisis de sus fortalezas y debilidades, anécdotas… y la respuesta a la pregunta formulada por Whatsapp.

 

Esperamos que disfrutéis de ello.

[Podcast] Un Pelotari en el Normandie-Niemen, con la asociación Sancho de Beurko. Archivo Sonoro de Sandglass Patrol 12

 

Hoy estamos con Guillermo Tabernilla, de la asociación Sancho de Beurko, los que demostrarían que lo de los windtalkers vascos es una leyenda. La asociación se dedica a investigar a los vascos descendientes de vascos (la diáspora vasca) que combatieron en distintos conflictos. Robert Iribarne es un vasco-francés, campeón de pelota vasca y piloto de caza, que vió servicio en l’Armée de l’Air primero, y en el grupo francés integrado en la VVS, el Normandie-Niemen. Ésta es su historia.

El podcast se puede enontrar en Amazon Music, Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Ivoox, Spotify

pd: Si la intro y la despedida os son familiares, que no os sorprenda. En un ejercicio de nostalgia podcasteril he hablado con Javier Lago para pedirle permiso y utlizar la introducción que hizo para el que, si no recuerdo mal, fue el primer podcast español sobre aviación: Remove Before Flight RBF podcast.
