A Brazilian blimp decked out with São Paulo Futebol Clube gear was sent to pump up fans before a major game.
However, this display had the opposite effect when the ship came crashing down in a neighborhood, sending residents running. What’s wrong with the legal system? Here is a possible case in point. Lawyer Jeff Smith crashed his snowmobile into a Blackhawk helicopter in 2019 and was recently awarded $3.3 million in damages. Smith suffered severe injuries in the accident. The crash occurred on March 13, 2019, in Worthington, Massachusetts. Smith was allegedly coming from his parent’s home, where he had a few beers with dinner before leaving to meet his brother on a known trail. He was driving in the dark and noticed the vehicle’s headlights reflecting off “something,” though he didn’t stop to see what it was until he crashed into it. Young Eagles is the EAA’s youth aviation education program, giving flights at no charge to adolescents and teens along with a parent to stimulate interest in flying and aviation careers. In 2024 more than 38,000 kids were given
flights, with the typically active fall flight period under way. We can’t wait to see what the full-year total will end up being. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
