Airborne 11.15.21: DeLand Showcase!, TL Sparker, Moon Landing Delays

Also: Classic Air Medical, AMO Coke Bust, Honeywell Inertial Navs, EpiShuttle Approved

The 2021 DeLand Sport Aviation Showcase, delayed multiple times by COVID concerns, finally took place this past weekend at the Deland Municipal Airport.

Sporadic weather caused issues throughout portions of each day, but the flying community nevertheless showed up in reasonable numbers following all the trauma of 2020. TL Ultralight, of Czech fame, has worked with their American cousins, TL Aircraft, to release their newest sport plane for discerning, hungry customers stateside. The carbon and kevlar shell provides maximum crew protection in case of rough off-airport landings should the worst occur, which, given the ballistic parachute recovery system, should be a rare occurrence.Retractable landing gear with a steerable nose wheel make for easy taxi handling, with 24 cubic feet of luggage compartments hungry enough for a trip's worth of luggage. NASA has pushed its intended moon landing date further out, now targeting a manned mission for 2025 at the earliest. Even the new date sounds optimistic, given recent realities in NASA Programs. Previously, in 2019, the Trump administration set what they believed was an attainable goal for the Artemis Program to establish human presence on the Moon by 2024. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
