Also: 1st Black Aviatrix, Rescue Helicopter on SAF, Runway Safety Town Hall, S-TEC 3100

Jeff Bezos' Instagram post says it all... "Ever since I was five years old, I’ve dreamed of traveling to space.

On July 20th, I will take that journey with my brother. The greatest adventure, with my best friend. #GradatimFerociter" Blue Origin has confirmed that Jeff Bezos and his brother Mark will join the auction winner on New Shepard’s first human flight on July 20th.  The Bay County Sheriff’s Office is looking for the pilot of a small plane that flew at approximately 300 feet over crowds at the Gulf Coast Jam three times this past Saturday evening, alarming attendees, security personnel, and organizers of the event. Out of caution, the concert was stopped and the stage cleared. The pilot has been identified as Robert Ryan Gore, age 40. For the first time in history, the Navy and Boeing have demonstrated air-to-air refueling using a UAV – the Boeing-owned MQ-25 T1 test asset – to refuel another aircraft. During a test flight June 4, MQ-25 T1 successfully extended the hose and drogue from its Navy-issued aerial refueling store (ARS) and safely transferred jet fuel to a Navy F/A-18. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
