Cirrus Aircraft has seen yet another SF50 Vision jet suffer a runway accident in which the vehicle encountered a failed takeoff at the Colombia, Santa Marta Airport. The SF50 Vision Jet had four persons aboard... all of whom reported some degree of injury but a minor child was reportedly struck by the jet, and killed, as it attempted to depart Runway 01. National Transportation Safety Board investigators identified a possible safety issue with a flight control of the De Havilland Canada DHC-3 that crashed into Mutiny Bay, Washington on Sept. 4, 2022. Tragically, the pilot and nine passengers were fatally injured. Investigators found the horizontal stabilizer actuator, which is part of the airplane’s pitch trim control system and is also referred to as the trim jack, had separated into two pieces. Atlanta-based Delta Airlines has reached an out-of-court settlement with company pilot Karlene Petitt, who sued the air-carrier, claiming she’d faced retaliation after raising safety concerns about the airline. The terms of the settlement remain undisclosed, but plaintiff’s attorneys have intimated Petitt’s award is “consistent with” a 2020 arbiter's ruling which put forth she deserved $500,000. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
