Airborne 04.07.23: Mk-II Aurora Spaceplane, UK Museum Threatened, Collier Trophy

Also: Brew Crew Blunder, Seaplane Pilots Association, United Aviate Academy, Tamarack Winglet Separation

Dawn Aerospace has successfully completed the first series of rocket-powered test-flights of its Mk-II Aurora spaceplane. 

The flight-test campaign was carried out at New Zealand’s Glentanner Aerodrome on 29, 30, and 31 March. The accomplishment occasions an important milestone in the Aurora platform’s development and advances the company’s stated mission of “revolutionizing space access.” The U.K.’s Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre’s (CAHC) plans to relocate its collection of aviation artifacts to a new site have received a devastating blow. The Cornwall Council has set forth that the museum must vacate its current premises immediately— though the facility’s new site will not be ready for 12 to 18 months. The National Aeronautic Association (NAA) announced that the 2022 Robert J. Collier Award shall be presented to the James Webb Space Telescope Team. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
