Also: Bill Moyes Goes West, United All Clear, Flt Training Regs, Raptor Precaution

Blue Origin plans to debut its second human-rated vehicle on the upcoming NS-27 launch. 

This intends to expand flight capacity alongside increasing customer demand. The new crew capsule, designated “RSS Kármán line,” features upgrades to the vehicle’s performance, durability, livery, and payload accommodation. The recent 10th World Air Sports Federation (FAI) World Canopy Piloting Championships & 4th FAI World Canopy Piloting Freestyle in Pretoria, South Africa, featured an intense competition and challenging weather. But USA’s Curt Bartholemew’s superior skills in Accuracy, Speed, and Distance earned him the top spot on the podium overall to garner another gold medal. On October 5, longtime volunteer and board member Brian Coughlin crashed in his Fokker D-VIII replica. The fatal accident occurred during Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome’s weekly airshow. The airshow kicked off at around 2:30 pm. Just 15 minutes later, the aerodrome’s World War I Fokker D-VIII replica crashed into the woods off the south end of the runway. It burst into flames and killed esteemed aerodrome volunteer Brian Coughlin, 60, of Cazenovia, New York. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
