Also: Mama Bird Johnson, Lights out For LightSquared, New Cessnas and LearJets, Nextant 400, ACJs, MLX770 Certs, and Aero-Cat-tastrophe! The FAA has just released a report called 'General Aviation Airports: A National Asset', which was compiled following an 18-month study to capture the many diverse functions of general aviation (GA) airports. The first customer-built example of the new Onex single-place, folding-wing, aerobatic sport aircraft has flown for the first time. Bill Fisher of Jackson Tennessee flew his AeroVee powered, standard gear Onex on Thursday, May 10th. Bill received the fourth Onex kit sold by Sonex Aircraft, shipped on August 5, 2011. An Arizona court said it will allow a lawsuit against Australian kitplane manufacturer Jabiru Aircraft Company to go forward despite the fact that its headquartered on the other side of the planet. The Arizona state Court of Appeals said that because Jabiru clearly understood that its kits were being sold in the U.S. through a dealer and distribution network, the lawsuit could go forward in Arizona. By all accounts, Evelyn "Mama Bird"Johnson was an amazing woman. Born just six years after the Wright Brothers first flew, "Mama Bird"learned to fly when she was 34 years old and wound up logging over 57-thousand-six-hundred hours ... or about 6-and-a-half years ... of flight time.

Race Officials Offer Preliminary Details About 2012 Race Prep ANN has received the following statement from Airventure Cup Race Organizers in regards to the 2012 Airventure Cup Race: Over the past week, there have been many posts on social media sites and web forums regarding the 2012 Airventure Cup Race. This statement is meant to clarify and correct some of the statements that were made, as well as provide the public with information regarding the fate of this year's race. Last week, we were contacted by EAA officials announcing they would no longer support air racing, including the Airventure Cup. This move was a shock to us as much as it was the rest of the aviation community and we are still in the process of evaluating our options to continue the race. However, in an effort to clarify some of the misinformation that was shared in the public forums, we would like to offer the following facts...

FlightPrep Quietly Sues... And Then Reportedly Withdraws From Suit As we noted last week, it was yet another case of “Oh-No-They-Didn’t” for the folks at FlightPrep... who stirred up VERY negative feelings in late 2010 and early 2011 with patent claims that had the potential to shut down much of the online flight-planning industry if those aggressive claims had been proved out in court. Via a series of legal threats and what many claimed to be ‘veiled’ intimidation tactics, FlightPrep had much of the industry on their toes until very negative public outcry pretty much forced FlightPrep to dial back their legal offenses and fold their tent... or so it seemed.

In Fact, Opening A Business Can Be Compared To Learning To Fly Last year, I wrote an article for ANN about “How Anyone Can Make At Least $150,000 Every Year In Their Own Aviation Business.” In that article I stated that there are so many opportunities in aviation that I believe anybody can get into the business and make money at it. Some of you may have taken me up on my challenge and started your own aviation business. Others may have the desire, but they’re just not sure they have the ability or the skills to succeed. If that’s you, let me encourage you otherwise.
