Mega Air Transports Episode 3
Mega Air goes air-less, as a commercial satellite air freights to its launch site, then space beyond. Britain’s biggest airport for pure air cargo undergoes a mammoth, nerve-jangling main runway overhaul. And we follow the emergency pilots who fly to the rescue of stranded packages for a global delivery service.
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.
