Timber Tiger’s Speedster has flown and is producing solid data necessary to get the bird into production later this year.
Wing root fairings are due for some modification to allow for better airflow but other than that, the rest of the airplane seems to be acquitting itself well. Timber Tiger Aircraft will shortly begin the manufacturing phase of its Speedster. Following in the footsteps of previous Timber Tiger designs, the aircraft blends classic style with modern engineering. EAA reports that for the FAA’s Fiscal Year which ended September 30, 2024, preliminary accident totals in the Experimental category were below the agency’s goal, marking an excellent safety record for the year. The FAA had set a not-to-exceed goal of 46 accidents and although the total is not yet finalized, the initial number of 37 accidents is well below that. DJI recently unveiled its Air 3S: an updated version of the previous Air 3 model. Though the two drones share many common features, the Air 3S contains several safety and quality upgrades. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
