Airborne 11.25.24: No 2025 CF-18 Demos, Privatization--Again?, USAF Silver Star

Also: USAFA Hotel FlightSims, Medevac-King Airs, University of Dubuque, Trump’s Transportation Secretary Pick

The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) announced it will stand down its typical CF-18 Hornet Demonstration Team in 2025 due to its imminent fleet transition to the CF-35A aircraft. 

“The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) is on the cusp of a period of modernization not seen since the Second World War. This period will impact nearly every fleet of aircraft and all members of the organization. Bill Schuster, former Chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, has reintroduced his push to separate ATC and state. If President-Elect Donald Trump revives his old policy platform, Schuster’s dreams might just come true. The US Air Force recently awarded a Silver Star to a female airman for the first time. This recognized Capt. Lacie Hester’s contribution to the elimination of 80 Iranian drones that were used in Iran’s invasion of Israel in April. The Silver Star, which is the third-highest US military combat decoration, was presented to Hester at a ceremony at Royal Air Force Lakenheath on November 12. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
