Airborne 05.04.22: 1st USAF T-7A, Qantas Buy, DR Holds Pilots

Also: Gary Ward Showmanship Award, JetBlue Wants Spirit, Australia's New AirShow, Mars Helo

The first T-7A Red Hawk advanced trainer jet to be delivered to the US Air Force has been unveiled.

The jet, one of 351 the U.S. Air Force plans to order, was unveiled prior to official delivery. The fully digitally designed aircraft was built and tested using advanced manufacturing, agile software development and digital engineering technology significantly reducing the time from design to first flight. Airbus announced Qantas, Australia’s largest domestic and international airline has signed an agreement to order 12ea A350-1000, 20ea A220, and 20ea A321XLR (eXtra Long Range). Qantas had conducted evaluation projects to suit its desired mission, while also continuing to position themselves as frontrunners of the Australian airline industry. Qantas sought to add the A350-1000 to provide the capability for non-stop flights to London, New York, and other international destinations. The Airline Division of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) is concerned over a pair of missing members who have been held in custody over contraband smuggled aboard their aircraft. The story is an unusual one, in which Pivot Airlines personnel, 2 flight attendants, 2 pilots, and a mechanic have been held in the country with no option to leave. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
