Jared Isaacman, who was initially nominated for the role of NASA Administrator by President Donald Trump and then had his nomination withdrawn, met with SecTrans Sean Duffy on October 13, who interviewed him again for the position.
However, reports have emerged that Secretary Duffy is interested in the role himself. The start of a new era of possibilities for recreational aviation is here now on the effective date of the MOSAIC – Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification – rule from the FAA. For recreational flyers, the new rule has high training standards that have been tailored for the enjoyment of flying. It retains the necessary basics of aircraft operation, navigation, weather, and airport procedures. Additional elements not required for basic flight ops are available for subsequent training. With the shutdown of the US government progressing into its fourth week, air shows across the country are feeling the bite as all US military participation – both static and aerial performances – have been withdrawn for the third straight weekend and likely the fourth. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
