Also: New Test Pilot School, Barnstorming: The Best Of 2014, More UAV Activity, ISS Resupply, Silent Falcon Production, Radar Blimps

Next Monday, Aero-News and Airborne start our first steps in a complex series of initiatives that will be rolled out, slowly and professionally, over the coming years.

You’ve heard bits and pieces of it here and there, but next week, Airborne comes to you daily, Monday through Friday... and with the added participation, backing and support of over 112 aviation and aerospace associations--and by this time next year, that number is expected to be even more substantial. The KC-46 Pegasus development program completed its first flight of the Engineering, Manufacturing and Development aircraft number 1. This aircraft is a provisioned 767-2C freighter and it’s the critical building block for the KC-46 missionized aerial refueler. Winning the 2014 EAA Grand Prize Sweepstake was sweet, but actually accepting the prize put the icing on the cake. John and Marsha Fulton rolled into Oshkosh eager to get their first look at, and lay official claim to, their “new” 1937 Fairchild 24H Deluxe. All this... and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
