One Pilot Recruited To Help Repossess Spirit Planes Asked, ‘Can I Fly In Shorts?’ The company responsible for repossessing Spirit Airlines planes was under a tremendous deadline to get the planes from airports where they had been left to Arizona and other locations. “I had six hours to find 20 pilots,” said Bob Allen, a co-founder of Nomadic Aviation Group in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. The aircraft leasing firms that owned the planes wanted them back, and quickly. Allen and company founder Steve Giordano had to quickly assemble a group of pilots to fly the planes and used a WhatsApp group to try and find them.

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Reflections on War’s Collective Lessons and Cyclical Nature The exigencies of war ought be colorblind. Inane social-constructs the likes of racism ought break down precipitously amongst men thrust together into combat’s equal-opportunity abattoir. Faced with a common, indiscriminate enemy, human beings ought perceive—suddenly, and with perfect clarity—the immateriality of color, creed, religion, and the myriad trivialities by which they fatuously divide themselves in peacetime. Alas, they do not.

Also: NASA Armstrong, DART Aerospace, UAE Regulator And Archer, Uncrewed Aerial Logistics The Solar Impulse 2, a long-range experimental aircraft, crashed in the Gulf of Mexico when it lost power during an unmanned test flight on May 4, a report from the NTSB said. There were no fatalities or injuries. The NTSB said the aircraft suffered a loss of power before crashing into the ocean. It was completely destroyed. No one was on board. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), in collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratory and Northrop Grumman, has flown the XRQ-73, a hybrid-electric, unmanned experimental aircraft. The flight occurred at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. in April 226 as part of DARPA’s series hybrid electric propulsion aircraft demonstration (SHEPARD) program. The FAA has issued a proposed rule that would allow specific categories of critical infrastructure sites to apply for restrictions on drone operations around their facilities. The restrictions would be submitted and approved via a new FAA web portal. Approval will be based on safety or security criteria. Sixteen sectors would be eligible for restrictions, including energy production, transportation systems, chemical facilities, water treatment plants, and defense industrial complexes.

The decision comes amid unresolved uncertainty surrounding ownership and authorization of key intellectual property connected to the Wills Wing brand and its Mexico based operations. The situation traces back to 2021, when Wills Wing revealed plans to close its longtime California manufacturing facility after 48 years in operation. According to findings reviewed by military investigators, a Major pilot preparing for his final flight before reassignment wanted to capture memorable in flight photos during the mission. Another pilot agreed to help stage the shot. What followed was a split second decision that carried a very expensive consequence. Lockwood Aviation’s Rotax-powered RV-9A concept has moved out of the attractive spec sheet phase, with builder Frank Owens’ RV-9A logging its first round of flights on May 7. The initial report was exactly what builders want to hear: “great, no squawks.” All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!

Zenith Aircraft Company is celebrating the 40th anniversary of its original STOL CH 701 "Sky Jeep"Design. Zenith Aircraft has been manufacturing SportPlanes in Mexico, Mo., since the early 1990s, operating in a niche corner of the market specializing in all-metal, high-wing and low-wing light sport airplanes that customers assemble themselves. The company traces its origins back to aeronautical engineer Chris Heintz, who began designing light aircraft in the 1970s. U.S. aviation fuel prices continued trending higher in April, with sustained increases nationwide as the war in Iran and ongoing instability in the Middle East continued to influence energy markets. National JET A full service averaged $8.05 in April, representing an increase of $0.41 (5.3%) compared to March. Excluding Alaska and Hawaii, Lower-48 JET A full service averaged $7.97, up $0.38 (5.0%) compared to March. The FAA was notified that a tail skid featuring a J-shaped, hook design manufactured by AirKit LLC under Part Number 16316, has been installed on FAA type-certificated Cessna 172s. This discovery was made following an incident on a Cessna 172 instructional flight in which the aircraft experienced a minor tail strike. During the strike, the tail-skid bracket bent backward and upward, penetrated the rudder’s bottom skin panel, and subsequently jammed the rudder.

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Sustained Flight Buford John Schramm was a remarkable man. His contributions to aviation—rotary-wing aviation in particular—are myriad and of a significance commensurate with Schramm’s having been inducted into the EAA Homebuilder’s Hall of Fame despite the fact he wasn’t an EAA member at the time of tragic 2006 death. In addition to founding kit-helicopter manufacturer RotorWay and operating a non-ferrous metal foundry that supplies materials to Bell, Hughes, Sikorsky, and Motorola, Mr. Schramm is remembered for developing the Helicycle—a rotorcraft widely esteemed among helicopter enthusiasts and counted among the world’s preeminent home-built helicopter designs.

With airline demand surging and fleets growing rapidly, Skyborne’s new Florida based programme could become a major launchpad for the next wave of Indian aviators. A new chapter is opening for aspiring pilots in India, and it feels like the kind of shift aviation watchers will be talking about for years. Proteus Flight School has trained thousands of pilots at Santa Monica Airport, outlasting competitors and weathering regulatory shifts that shuttered other operators at the field. But its future is uncertain now as closure of the airport hangs in the balance. Founded in 1996, Proteus is the oldest continuously operating flight school at the airport. It has since expanded to a primary location and a maintenance and instruction hangar. Volocopter has unveiled the VoloXPro, an all electric ultralight multicopter that feels less like science fiction and more like the first real glimpse into aviation’s next everyday reality. Built from the foundation of the company’s proven VoloCity platform, the VoloXPro blends modern technology with a refreshingly human approach to flying. It is aimed at everyone from flight schools and flying clubs to sightseeing operators and aviation enthusiasts eager to experience what electric aviation truly feels like from the pilot seat.
