Airborne 11.01.21: DeLand Showcase, EXP Stats, TBird #5 Leaving

Also: Breeze Airways, Compact Engine Core, Warbird Season, ISS Crew Launch Delay

2021 can’t come to an end fast enough for most of us in the aviation biz... but we know a GREAT way to get ready for 2022 -- attending next week’s DeLand Sport Aviation Showcase.

A central point for each fall’s celebration of all that was good about sport aviation, the Deland Florida event takes place next week from November 11th-13th at the Deland Municipal Airport. The Showcase welcomes all aviation enthusiasts interested in affordable recreational flying, offering a special emphasis on experimentals, homebuilts, light-sport aircraft and ultralights. The EAA is happy to announce another year of increased safety, as the fatal accident rate has once again decreased. Experimental category aircraft, often the problem child of aircraft operations, has seen its fatal accident total fall another 5% to finish below the FAA never-exceed total for the federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.  Overall, general aviation has seen increasing flight hours flown, thankfully without a corresponding increase in accidents. Improvements in aviation are too multivariate to give full credit to any one change today, but advances in pilot awareness, EFB tools enabling better flight planning and weather avoidance, and the addition of ADS-B on aircraft undoubtedly help prevent the root causes of many incidents. While the Salinas Airshow was underway in California, news was broken about #5 Lead Solo pilot, Major Michelle Curran. Describing her impending career move, she said: "I’m about to make a big career pivot and will be leaving the Active Duty Air Force in the new year. However, I’ll be continuing to serve in a part-time capacity and pursuing some goals in the business world.” All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
