The New York Times put out a video editorial that included mischaracterizations and misstatements regarding how general and business aviation contribute to the funding of the nation’s aviation system.
But NBAA corrected them in a letter to the news organization. On Monday, August 11, what looks to have been a stall during landing left five aircraft damaged. The four passengers traveling in the Socata TBM-850 survived, with two suffering minor injuries. Flight tracking data shows that the TBM-850 went down while attempting to land at Kalispell City Airport in Montana. The privately operated turboprop, registered N860CA to Meter Sky LLC, was on approach to runway 13 and seemed to stall just before the threshold, then veered off to the left. A fair number of Army paratroopers stand to lose monthly payments of $150 in monthly as leadership makes changes to the airborne force with the ‘reclassification’ of more than 22,000 paid parachutist positions. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
