Aero Linx: Brodhead Pietenpol Association The Brodhead Pietenpol Association is a newly reorganized (in 2017) non-profit educational corporation that grew and developed from an earlier type club for owners, pilots, builders, and aficionados of the Pietenpol Aircamper and Sky Scout. The original BPA was started in 1975 (then called the National Pietenpol Association) as a social and builder support group. It has evolved over the years and now, after four decades, has blossomed into a newly re-organized Pietenpol-focused educational organization with part of its mission now including among other activities, promoting aviation safety related to antique amateur-built aircraft, disseminating safe amateur aircraft building info, and promoting recognition of the historical significance of Bernard Pietenpol as a ground-breaking designer, builder and promoter of early amateur-built aircraft.

"I finally, finally, received a proposed settlement, and it was-it wasn't acceptable. It wasn't even a place to start with."Source: Part of the ponderous narrative surrounding an Indian Tribe's inexcusable seizure of an aircraft that made an emergency landing within tribal limits. Pilot Darrin Smedsmo was flying from Roseau to Bemidji, Minn., on Oct. 15 when the plane's engine seized up, forcing him to make an emergency landing on the west side of Lower Red Lake. An allegedly proffered agreement states that the tribe will release the aircraft to Smedsmo upon the donation of $5,000 to the Red Lake Boys & Girls Club, along with payment of a $2,750 towing fee that occurred on the day of the incident -- all for an accident/emergency that was just that... an unavoidable confrontation between physics and bad luck.

Also: Hybrid-Electric Propulsion, Joby Reports On 2025, Drone Wingmen Engine, NASA Replacements The FAA put in place Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) to restrict flights last Thursday near Fort Hancock, Texas, about 50- miles southeast of El Paso after a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) drone was reportedly shot down by a laser operated by the military. Media reports noted that "the Defense Department used a high-energy laser"to shoot down the CBP drone. Northrop Grumman has formally introduced the YFQ-48A Talon Blue as the U.S. Air Force-designated variant of its internally funded Project Talon portfolio. The bird, now officially recognized under the Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program, aims to serve as an autonomous wingman to support crewed fighters. The rapid growth of small, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at every level of the Army has crowded low-altitude airspace, requiring units to safely deconflict thousands of Group 1 and Group 2 drones with rotary-wing attack. As ground forces rely on these systems, the challenge is to maximize their use without compromising the safety of manned aviation or hindering mission tempo.

The friendly fire episode occurred around 7 a.m. local time on the third day of the U.S. war against Iran. At least one Kuwaiti F/A-18 (file photo) is believed to be responsible-Kuwait flies F/A-18s and Eurofighter Typhoons. Reports say one Kuwaiti F/A pilot launched three missiles against the U.S. aircraft. Three pilots and their three back-seat weapons systems officers ejected and were recovered safely and are in stable condition. U.S. tariffs were a major challenge for Pilatus in 2025, the company said in its annual report. The Swiss aerospace manufacturer faced a 39% tariff, and Pilatus briefly halted deliveries to the United States. The company did move ahead with launch of the upgraded PC-12 PRO, presenting a newly designed cockpit, which attracted interest worldwide, reaching over two million people and generating a steady stream of new orders and high demand. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has confirmed that recent drone strikes by Iran took down three of its facilities in the Middle East. Businesses that rely on AWS to run their websites, store data and process transactions experienced more error rates, slower performance and service interruptions.

Also: Japanese eVTOL, C-130J Autonomy Program, Hybrid-Electric Propulsion, Helo Stability Tech Purdue University’s Unmanned Aerial Systems program is officially the Federal Aviation Administration’s latest pick to join the UAS-Collegiate Training Initiative (UAS-CTI), placing it among a limited group of institutions recognized for preparing students for careers in unmanned aviation. The FAA’s UAS-CTI program identifies colleges and universities whose curriculum aligns with federal standards governing drone operations within the National Airspace System. The Oregon Department of Aviation (ODA) published a white paper saying recent federal restrictions and guidance affecting foreign-manufactured UAS have triggered widespread operational disruption across state transportation agencies. Based on responses from 25 states, programs that relied heavily on Chinese DJI and Autel drones report the largest impacts, including fleet grounding or restrictions on federally funded projects, interruption of survey/mapping and construction workflows, and near-term funding gaps. Airbus Helicopters, through its subsidiary Survey Copter, has been selected by the European Defense Agency (EDA) for its multi-mission unmanned aircraft system (M2UAS) project. The strategic contract is part of a series of projects lasting 48 months, with a total budget of approximately $1.2 million. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-NextGen!!!

Mario Mercier Hernandez, 61, of New Port Richey, Fla., has been sentenced by United States District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle to the statutory maximum of 10 years in federal prison for the interstate transportation of stolen property. The DoJ said Mercier committed a string of thefts of avionics equipment from more than 40 airports across the United States, including airports in Florida, Tennessee, New Jersey, Maryland, and South Carolina. Pilots are petitioning Starlink to reinstate roaming plans after the company capped standard roam and priority plans at 100 mph (87 knots) ground speed. SpaceX is moving to push pilots into more expensive Starlink connectivity tiers. Under the new set-up, Aviation 300MPH costs $250 per month and includes 20 GB of data, with overages billed at $10 per GB. Aviation 450MPH is priced at $1,000 per month, also with 20 GB included, and $50 per GB thereafter. Previously, users often utilized $50-$65/month roam/priority plans.

The Airplane Had Been Undergoing Maintenance For The Past 11 Months Following A Propeller Strike On January 13, 2026, about 1530 eastern standard time, a Cessna 177B, N34959, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Ocoee, Tennessee. The pilot received minor injuries. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. According to the pilot, the airplane had been undergoing maintenance for the past 11 months following a propeller strike. The repairs and the annual inspection were completed the day before the accident flight. After refueling the fuel tanks and performing a preflight inspection, with no anomalies observed, he departed from Lovell Field Airport (CHA), Chattanooga, Tennessee, and proceeded east.

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Barking up the Right Tree Australian-born, the Aeropup is a remarkably robust, fully-customizable, go-anywhere, two-seat, STOL/LSA aircraft. The machine’s rugged, CNC-precision-manufactured chromium-alloy tubular-steel frame surrounds the occupant compartment, protecting those within after the fashion of a high-performance road-vehicle’s roll-cage. The Aeropup’s rugged airframe may be paired with either a conventional (tailwheel) or tricycle (nosewheel) undercarriage, and is borne aloft by an innovative and efficient wing comprising three spars—the principal of which features a lattice-structure at once stronger and lighter than conventional hollow spars. What’s more, to facilitate ease of transport and storage, the Aeropup’s wings are user-foldable.

A routine flight somehow ended up in a tedious 900-foot rescue after a hot-air balloon got stuck in a communications tower near Longview, Texas, leaving two riders stranded in the air for hours. The call came in around 8:15 am on Saturday, February 28. The Longview Fire Department was the first team dispatched to what quickly became a rare high-angle rescue. Lieutenant Stephen Winchell himself said that the scale of the incident was far greater than they were prepared to handle. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
