Well... there’s bad news and some not quite-as-bad news...
Van’s Aircraft is increasing most of their kit prices by approximately 32%. Online order forms will be updated with the new kit prices. Prices of individual parts and components will also be increasing, some more than 32%, and others less. While these price changes are significant, Van’s believes them to be necessary. Trevor Jacob, of "intentionally crashed Taylorcraft for Youtube" fame, recently bragged about getting his pilot’s license back on his YouTube channel. Jacob started off opaque about exactly what "getting a pilot license back" means, but 7 minutes into the platitude-ridden slog he admits that he has "passed my written and got permission from a CFI to retake my check ride... (and) I passed my checkride." Now that the Samson Sky Switchblade has started flying out of ground effect and started making pattern hops, it's time to look to the future of this program. Using WeFunder, Salmon Sky is looking to start initial investment in the crowd-funding mode for as much as a
million dollars... All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
