It’s been awhile since Mooney Aircraft has announced the first flight of a completely new design, but that’s just what they did last week after the long awaited first flight of their M10T Proof of Concept aircraft.

The flight lasted approximately 15 minutes, with their test pilot conducting basic flight maneuvers and verifying design data. The M10T, announced in 2014, is Mooney International Corporation's new design, carbon-fiber, 3 seat, fixed-gear aircraft. Powered by the Continental Technify CD-135, Jet-A engine, the M10 is a new generation aircraft designed by Mooney. In a report meant to be humorous and yet point out that the federal government may be over-reacting to the potential for accidents involving UAVs, a researcher dug into the FAA's Wildlife Strike Database and found that there have been 198 confirmed turtle strikes by airplanes between January 1, 1990 and July 31, 2015. Honda Aircraft Company has begun deliveries of the HondaJet, handing over the first aircraft last week at its world headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina. This milestone follows final type certification from the FAA, which the HondaJet received on December 8th. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
