Airborne 05.16.25: Mavic 4 Pro Launch, MH17 Blame, Cyclotech Maiden Flt

Also: Qatar Boeing Order, Bernie Sander's Carbon Footprint, Bell's 6,000th, 27th Air Force Secretary

DJI’s recent flagship drone announcement was slightly diminished by the decision to exclude US customers from the launch. 

Though the US and DJI have been on poor terms for years, many did not expect the drone manufacturer to willingly sacrifice such a large market. More than a decade after the accident occurred, the UN's aviation council ruled that Russia was responsible for the deaths of all 298 passengers and crew on board Malaysian Airlines Flight 17. ICAO will decide how the nation can right its wrongs. On July 17, 2014, Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 took off from Amsterdam with plans to land in Malaysia’s capital city, Kuala Lumpur. It was in cruise over a rural area in the Donetsk Oblast of Eastern Ukraine when a surface-to-air missile shot it down, killing 298 passengers and crew. Australia-based company CycloTech recently got its BlackBird electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) demonstrator airborne for the first time, kicking off the aircraft’s unmanned test campaign. This paves the way for the developer’s full-scale project: the CruiseUp. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
