One of the greatest airshow events in the UK has been cancelled for 2024 and question marks litter the landscape thereafter.

In addition, CAP awarded Textron Aviation a contract in September for the further acquisition of 14 Skyhawk 172s and one Skylane 182T. Blue Origin successfully completed its 24th New Shepard flight and 13th payload mission Tuesday from Launch Site One in West Texas. The flight carried 33 payloads from NASA, academia, research institutions, and commercial companies, bringing the number of payloads flown on New Shepard to more than 150. Club for the Future, Blue
Origin’s nonprofit, flew 38,000 postcards as part of its Postcards to Space program. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
