Airborne 11.24.21: Denali FIRST Flt, Gone West: Jim Richmond, Puppy Rescue

Also: Tecnam Begins Green Program, Air and Marine Operations, Oman Academy, DJI Joins AnimaMundi

The Beechcraft Denali took flight Tuesday, marking its first test with the new GE Catalyst turbine engine.

The milestone is a major step for the all new, all original design. With a single turboprop, pressurized cabin, economic fuel burn, and advanced avionics, Textron hopes to see certification sometime in 2023. The Denali was flown by senior test pilot Peter Gracey and chief test pilot Dustin Smisor. The duo tested the aircraft's performance, stability, maneuverability, controllability throughout the nearly 3-hour flight. The note we received late Monday was sad, to say the least... "It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of our Founder, Jim Richmond, who passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 21st, 2021 surrounded by loving family at his home in Yakima, Washington. He will be missed greatly by family, friends, customers, and coworkers alike." Jim started the company in 1980, and although he had retired from its day-to-day management in recent years, he continued to be active in managing the strategic and creative direction of the company until his death. An Alabama rescue service recently made the rounds on Tik Tok with a short video featuring a small plane filled with puppies. The footage was taken by Cassandra Bergeron, on a 90-minute flight from Alabama to Orlando, Florida on a trip that saved the dogs from probable euthanization. The dogs were removed from a series of rescues and shelters by Alabama Puppy Rescue Flights. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
