Airborne 01.09.23: P-51 v Piper, Artemis Inspection, Lead-Free Avgas

Also: Dramatic Helo Rescue, Hot Spots Standardized, NASA's 747SP, Blackhawk Aerospace Acquired

Ask any taildragger pilot about the issues inherent in taxiing the average conventional geared airplane around a busy ramp... like the Pitts Special, Cessna 195, Russian SU26/29/31 Sukhoi series... or... the P-51 Mustang.

So... as the year was coming to a close, two aircraft met in the worst possible way... the oft-warned nose to tail collision. A North American P-51D Mustang, N3333E, nicknamed 'Glamorous Glenn III', ran into the aft section of a Piper PA-46-600TP M600, N282TX, during taxi at Houston Executive Airport, Texas. Inside the Multi-Payload Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, engineers and technicians are conducting inspections of the heat shield on the Orion spacecraft for the Artemis I mission. Orion returned to Kennedy on Dec. 30, 2022, after splashing down in the Pacific Ocean on Dec. 11. In February 2022, a cooperative comprising the FAA and aviation and petroleum industry stakeholders established the EAGLE (Eliminate Aviation Gasoline Lead Emissions) program. The initiative set out to safely but surely eradicate the production and use of leaded aviation fuel by the end of 2030. The passage into law of the $1.7-trillion Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 allocated $10-million to the continued development of unleaded aviation fuels. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
