## Resource

This week on The VIP Seat , we’re covering one of the strangest weeks in aviation news yet. The FAA moves one step closer to allowing civilian supersonic flight over the United States, and what that could mean for Boom Supersonic and the future of business aviation. Plus: Canada’s bizarre battle between Billy Bishop Airport expansion and a historic nudist beach. China grounds virtually all general aviation around Beijing after a small aircraft crashes into a skyscraper. Inside the Sun Valley billionaires conference , where hundreds of Gulfstreams, Globals and Falcons descend on Idaho. A Delta airliner is struck by fireworks during Fourth of July celebrations. Jared Isaacman flies for Freedom 250 in his F-5 despite FAA objections. A hard Hudson River landing involving a Blade-booked Kodiak 100 seaplane. Why Part 145 repair stations are becoming one of the hottest M&A sectors in aviation. Plus another round of Mile High Madness , including a barefoot helicopter pilot landing on a fishing vessel. Subscribe for weekly business aviation news, private aviation analysis, safety insights, and industry commentary.
