Airborne 05.13.20: Piper Making 'History?', FireBoss, EAA v FAA

Also: New ANN Staff, Mask Mandates Continue, SWA 737 Hits Trespasser, Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law

Piper Aircraft, who hasn't exactly been vocal of late, has started speaking up... via a mysterious YouTube video posted Friday. Outside of the video, itself, the description, only says, "This will change everything. For everyone. Forever. Keep an eye on our page to see how aviation history will be made."

The video, just under 30 seconds in length, shows an orange jump-suited test pilot walking out to what appears to be an M600 airframe, with a parachute slung over his shoulder, to head out on a flight that is taking place at 0433... an ungodly hour... even for test flying... unless you don't want to be seen. The aircraft, N524LT, is seen taxiing out under cover of darkness whereby the video starts raising the hype... Fire Boss LLC has announced the purchase of a new Fire Boss by AirPro Aviation. “This company in Arkansas has established itself with the use of three A802 SEAT (Single Engine Air Tanker) aircraft. Upon receiving delivery in December of 2020, they will be the 3rd Fire Boss operator in the United States and the 20th Fire Boss based in the country. This confirms we are beyond the early adoption phase of our product. As EAA related to ANN and others last week, the FAA did not deliver relief to personal and recreational aviation that the general aviation community sought and anticipated in a Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) addressing COVID-19’s impact on aviation, especially in the areas of expiring biennial flight reviews (BFR) and aircraft annual inspections. A notice from the FAA Safety Team confirms EAA's disappointing legal interpretation... All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
