A group of airport tenants has been joined by at least two national aviation associations in filing a complaint with the FAA concerning California’s embattled Santa Monica Airport.
The complaint, formally filed on July 2 requests that the FAA clarify that the airport must continue to abide by its FAA grant assurances through August 2023, to ensure vital aviation services and facilities remain intact. Boeing confirmed that the new 787-9 Dreamliner and the P-8A Poseidon will participate for the first time in flying displays at the Farnborough International Airshow, which runs July 14 through the 20th. These airplanes will be on static and flying display during the airshow through July 18. It would seem appropriate that the Secretary of the Air Force would be invited to ride with the Thunderbirds demonstration team, If for no other reason than just to have an understanding and appreciation for what they do. But Air Force Secretary Deborah Lee James may have gotten more than she bargained for during such an experience at Nellis Air Force Base recently.
