## Resource

Berkshire Hathaway has disclosed a major stake in Delta Air Lines — but with Delta now deeply tied to Wheels Up, what does that mean for private aviation, premium travel, and NetJets? This week on The VIP Seat , Jessie Naor and Preston Holland break down Berkshire’s Delta investment, Delta’s continued commitment to Wheels Up, and the growing connection between airline premium cabins and private jet customers. They also discuss the NTSB’s decision to shut down safety dockets after AI tools were used to reconstruct cockpit voice recorder audio from spectrograms, raising major questions about privacy, accident investigation data, and public access. Plus: the FAA’s new Modern Skies air traffic control modernization dashboard, NASA’s moon base ambitions, seaplane bases as aviation infrastructure, and the debut of Captain Keyboard , where Jessie and Preston rate their meanest internet comments like turbulence.
