“Forcing a significant portion of that traffic volume into neighboring traffic patterns in already congested Phoenix-area airspace is a foreseeable operational consequence of the fees, not conjecture, and it is the concern FAA Director of Airport Compliance Michel Helvey identified on April 13, 2026, writing that ‘the City’s unusual landing fee structure has the potential for systemwide impacts’ and could ‘jeopardize or disrupt the Acceptable Level of Safety under which operations are now conducted.’ The city’s refusal to acknowledge this clear issue is concerning.” Source: The Arizona Pilots Association (APA) and the Aviation Safety Advisory Group of Arizona (ASAG), as well as other organizations, have submitted comments to the FAA pushing back on the City of Mesa’s defense of its financial methodology and rationale behind the implementation of landing fees at Falcon Field.

Abbreviated IFR Flight Plans An authorization by ATC requiring pilots to submit only that information needed for the purpose of ATC. It includes only a small portion of the usual IFR flight plan information. In certain instances, this may be only aircraft identification, location, and pilot request. Other information may be requested if needed by ATC for separation/control purposes. It is frequently used by aircraft which are airborne and desire an instrument approach or by aircraft which are on the ground and desire a climb to VFR-on-top.

Coupled Approach An instrument approach performed by the aircraft autopilot, and/or visually depicted on the flight director, which is receiving position information and/or steering commands from onboard navigational equipment. In general, coupled non-precision approaches must be flown manually (autopilotdisengaged) at altitudes lower than 50 feet AGL below the minimum descent altitude, and coupled precision approaches must be flown manually (autopilot disengaged) below 50 feet AGL unless authorized to conduct autoland operations. Coupled instrument approaches are commonly flown to the allowable IFR weather minima established by the operator or PIC, or flown VFR for training and safety.

The British Royal Air Force (RAF) Aerobatics team the Red Arrows have pulled out of a number of key summer events due to the team being stranded in Canada. The RAF's aerobatics team were due to return to RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire last week following its tour of the U.S., but were grounded due to poor weather predicted for north-eastern regions of Canada. In an update, the team said it now anticipated continuing its multi-leg journey back to the U.K. next week. Boeing and Archer Aviation have announced the companies have signed definitive agreements in which Archer will acquire Boeing's Wisk Aero, SkyGrid and Insitu subsidiaries. The acquisitions, including the drone maker Insitu and airspace-services provider SkyGrid, give Archer access to Boeing's autonomous-flight technology, potentially bolstering its position in defense and commercial logistics.

The Pilot's Excessive Approach Speed, Which Resulted In A Hard, Bounced Landing And Noseover Analysis: The pilot reported that he had been conducting glider tow operations and the gliders were landing back to the same airport that he had departed from. After releasing a glider, he flew west of the airport to survey the landing area due to the high volume of activity on the ground at the airport. He determined that he would land to a grassy area adjacent to the runway. The pilot maneuvered the airplane for a short base-to-final approach and noted that his approach speed was approximately 5 to 10 mph faster than normal with full flaps extended. He touched down “fairly firm” in a tail-low wheel landing attitude. After the tailwheel contacted the ground, he applied full aft elevator and braking.

No one was hurt. Air traffic control audio from the incident captures pilot Emily Shelton reporting a burning oil smell and dropping oil pressure before telling controllers she did not believe she could reach the airport. “We would like to go ahead and declare an emergency. We’re losing our engine. I don’t know if we’re gonna make it to the airport,” she said. More than 1,000 students have graduated from the Aviation Maintenance Technical program called the SkillBridge program at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

BANSA exempts single-engine piston powered aircraft on private flights from these fees. “NBAA is launching an advocacy effort with other impacted stakeholders and the U.S. government to highlight the negative economic impact such onerous fees will have on FBOs, airports, the travel industry and surrounding businesses,” said Laura Everington, NBAA’s director of international operations and regulations. A Government Accountability Office (GAO) report says investigators posing as pilots called 45 FBOs at 40 general aviation airports and compared the prices they received by phone against listings on AirNav, various airport directories, ForeFlight and FBO websites.

From 2011 (YouTube Edition): Rugged, Legendary, STOL Twin Makes A Comeback The de Havilland Twin Otter is an airplane with a long history, and it gained a reputation as a workhorse of an airplane. But after it went out of production, Viking Air became one of the principal suppliers of spare parts and service to keep the airplanes flying. Dave Curtis, President and CEO of Viking Air Limited, told ANN at NBAA in Las Vegas this year that he often heard operators ask why the airplane wasn't put back into production. So, long story short, Viking Air bought the type certificate for the Twin Otter and the rest of the product line from Bombardier, which owned them at the time, and in 2007, the company began building brand new Twin Otters. Certification came in 2010.

Also: Military Jamming in NM?, Voyager 2 Gets Another Year, Gorge Drones $289,215 Fine, AAL on SAF A drone carrying an explosive device was discovered inside a secure cargo operations area at Leipzig/Halle Airport. The finding temporarily halted flight operations and prompted a major security response involving counter-terrorism authorities. The incident took an additional turn when another unidentified object struck a cargo aircraft attempting to land. An airport staff member discovered the drone near the airport’s south runway shortly before midnight. Fire officials are expressing concerns as more people are using drones in restricted airspace to video wildfires from above, blocking or slowing firefighters’ efforts to save lives and property, and putting pilots’ lives at risk. The latest incident came Saturday night In Iron County, Utah where Iron County Emergency Management announced angrily, writing in all caps, under the headline “Urgent” that someone was flying a drone nearby the firefighting and police were looking for the pilot. “AIR ASSETS WILL BE GROUNDED UNLESS THIS DRONE STOPS FLYING!!!, Merlin has reached Stage of Involvement 3 with New Zealand aviation regulators.

Also: Burke Airport Defense, SkyTrax Hydraulic Prop, Diamond Lil Returns, Drones v Spokane Fires The return of the Blue Angels to Seattle’s Seafair Weekend has sparked a growing conversation about the role of military aviation demonstrations in major public celebrations. A myopic opinion piece from a Seattle parent argues that the Navy precision flight team’s performances create challenges for residents with sensory sensitivities, veterans, and those affected by memories of conflict. The writer describes personal experiences with a child who struggled with the sound of the jets and questions whether a city known for its focus on inclusion should continue hosting the demonstration. An Australian aviation crew has carried out a midwinter mission to rescue a U.S. expedition member from a station in Antarctica. Skytraders said the extraordinary mission took place after a request for urgent help with a medical evacuation from McMurdo Station. After an initial delay due to the weather, the aviation company said it was able to land its Airbus A319 in "extremely challenging conditions"including temperatures of -43C (-45.4F). Among the more than 10,000 aircraft gathered at Oshkosh in July 2026 was an airplane unlike almost anything else on the flight line. Built by France’s Club Aéro des Garrigues, the replica of Alberto Santos-Dumont’s Demoiselle represented a design whose origins reach back to 1907.
