After seeing a Facebook post about a family stranded on a mountain, Jordan Seidhom and his son set out on a rescue mission with their R44 helicopter -- at their own expense. 

After some successful efforts, local authorities intervened, inexplicably threatening to arrest Seidhom if he proceeded with rescue operations. Seidhom, the former head of Chesterfield County Sheriff’s Office narcotics unit and a 1,400-hour pilot, knew that he could help locate and rescue them. He found a safe place to land, loaded up on supplies, and got clearance from ATC before departing. An American World War II-era 500-pound bomb that had lain buried beneath a taxiway at Miyazaki Airport (KMI) in southwestern Japan exploded suddenly and without warning, leaving a crater about 20 feet wide and 3 feet deep in the taxiway. Thankfully, no one was injured in the explosion. Dynon Certified announced that its autopilot, already available as an option for its certified SkyView HDX avionics suite, is now approved for all Mooney M20J and M20K aircraft. The autopilot is approach-capable when paired with a compatible IFR navigator. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
