Breathe easier! O2 Aero Acquisitions and Aerox Aviation Oxygen Systems has acquired the aviation oxygen assets of Air Craft Industries -- doing business as Sky-Ox. The acquisition broadens Aerox’s line of portable oxygen systems for cargo, commercial, business, and general aviation users—as well as STCs [Supplemental Type Certificates] for O2 systems in a range of general aviation aircraft models. The United States Air Force (USAF) brass has had their knuckles cracked trying to push the “Warthogs” A-10 Thunderbolt II into the dust bucket yet again. It wasn’t that long ago, actually it was 2019 when the USAF Materiel Command issued a statement about having completed re-winging the last of the A-10’s and that the fleet would be ‘good’ until the late 2030’s. Lilium GmbH, the German Aerospace company developing the VTOL Lilium Jet, announced today that its technology demonstrator, Phoenix 2, has achieved main wing transition—which is to say, the aircraft successfully transitioned from hover to wing-borne flight. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
