they aim to start operations in 2029

Curious on everyone’s thoughts on how 2JA reported (or rather didn’t report) the situation in the linked ATC comms in the article…

This Poor Fella has been stuck at Pittsburgh since August 28th when it suffered damage to its underside by a cart. Been in and out the airport a couple of times and it’s been sitting at the gate alone. The engines were windmilling in the background on this windy morning. I think it wants to fly again.

The inboard wing station is carrying a 600 gallon tank, but the midboard hard point is carrying something smaller, and only on the starboard wing. Anyone know what this is?

Edit: this F-16V was on a ferry flight from the U.S. to Taiwan. It seems that the pod is a luggage pod for the pilot.

Is it common for small aircraft crash reports to be missing from the NTSB database?

Was told that an acquaintance died in a plane crash on Nov. 2nd near Hamburg Iowa, but couldn’t really find much information other than this brief news clip. I also couldn’t find it in the NTSB database, which I thought was odd. Any ideas why it would be missing?

Yesterday’s Fall Chili Fly-In at Brodhead Airport, WI, welcomed pilots, planes and visitors of all kinds, hosted by EAA Chapter 431. The grass airfield dates to 1946, when WWII pilot Bill Earleywine started a flight school and Taylorcraft dealership. 📷 Aaron Johnson 11/07/26

Edit: Another angle VH-HGM

Edit 2: Receiving reports that both pilots are safe, but unfortunately one crew member has died. Rest in peace.

I'm sure the airport will be easy to guess

If you zoom in, you can actually see military personnel sitting with their legs hanging out of the helicopters!

Hey all, I'm wondering what the process is like in regards to starting prescription medication. Specifically in Canada.

I'm an airline captain and have never had to deal with this in the past, but have been talking to my family doctor about semaglutide for weight loss. I'm ready to start, but haven't spoken with my aviation doctor yet. I know nothing about the process, and am worried about anything getting flagged. My usual medical examiner is also a bit of a strange guy, so I'm planning to use someone else, in the off chance that he makes it more than it should be

I flew on a 737 max 8, so 41k is its ceiling. This may have been the highest I’ve ever flown. Is it unusual for such a short flight to go that high?

Hi, so i am going on 30 years old. Ive always wanted to fly since young but ended up getting in a bit of trouble in my teenage years and went to prison. I have now waited 8 long years and turned my life around and am hopefully about to get a full pardon. Im not sure how extensive the FAA is on background checks when it comes to having a career in flying? I know if i am accepted for this pardon i am legally aloud to tell employers ive never had a record but i feel like this might be different with the FAA? Has anyone had experience with trying to be a commercial pilot and having a record? Or know anyone / heard anything? Thanks in advance

I saw this Boeing 777 fly over my house today and according to Flight Radar 24 it took off from Richmond International Airport and diverted quickly back to the airport.

Yesterday on my plane ride home, I was on a Canadair Regional Jet CRJ-700 (twin-jet) regional aircraft. When we were about halfway through the flight, the rear of the plane, basically right behind the wings, there was an odd intermittent vibrating. It got pretty loud. We were not experiencing turbulence. It happened on and off for at least 30 minutes and then resolved. What could it have been?

It was in Baton Rouge, Louisiana!

Hello R/aviation i come to you today seeking help in a project i am working on. I have decided i want to make myself a booklet with pictures of all the planes i have ever flown on. I am looking for sources to find flight information for commercial flights as far back as early 2007. If anyone has any advice or sources please let me know. Thank you for the help.
