Mega Air Transports Episode 2
We follow every astonishing step of the 36-hour delivery of salmon from the Norwegian arctic circle to sushi diners in Japan, via Finnair’s state-of-the-art cargo cooling facility. The gigantic air freighter, the Antonov 124, delivers 30 tons of life-saving pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. And a trailblazing airport boss goes on one of her infamous airport walkarounds.
Mega Air celebrates the incredible 6 trillion-dollar air freight industry. Meeting the people and gasping at the mind-boggling items, transported in aircraft that beggar belief.
We witness, among others, the 36 hour delivery of salmon from the Norwegian arctic circle to Japan’s sushi restaurants, one of the biggest commercial satellites flown to its rocket launch site, 61 top class show jumpers destined for a premier Hong Kong event, the high octane rush to transport Formula 1 components to Australia and the jaw-dropping Valentines flowers daily air shuttle that fuels the world’s biggest flora auction in a building the size of Monaco!
As well, we see what it takes to run the UK’s largest pure cargo air-hub, East Midlands Airport; covering everything from major runway repairs to the surprisingly difficult challenge of keeping the airfield free of birds.
