You know you’ve messed up when your transgression shows up in a press release.
Such is the case with an FAA mistake. The NTSB has found that the FAA mistakenly released investigative information regarding their ongoing investigation of an airplane accident that occurred in Philadelphia on March 13, 2014. This is an error that violated NTSB regulations and party processes. Mark Van Tine, Chief Executive Officer of Jeppesen and Vice President of digital aviation for The Boeing Company, has joined the top leadership of the Experimental Aircraft Association as the newest member of the EAA Board of Directors. A New Year's message from Virgin Galactic’s Richard Branson indicates that he's bound and determined to stick the private space program out, despite the tragic loss of Mike Alsbury and the serious injuries to Pete Siebold when SpaceShipTwo was destroyed on a test flight. All this... and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
