Aero Linx: Air Safety Group The Air Safety Group is a voluntary group founded in England in 1964. It is composed of aviation professionals who hold the view that there have been, and to some extent still are, too many preventable accidents to Commercial Air transport aircraft. Furthermore, some of these accidents and their resultant casualties arise from inadequate action on the part of the aviation industry and its Regulatory Authorities.

Boeing delivered 143 commercial aircraft in the first quarter of 2026, a figure that demonstrates the company’s output is holding steady after last year’s recovery took hold. Though deliveries fell short of Boeing’s brisk late-2025 pace, the most recent quarter was led by 114 deliveries of the 737, along with six 767s, eight 777s, and 15 787s. That tally is up from 130 commercial deliveries in the first quarter of 2025. March deliveries slowed slightly after Boeing found wiring issues in some 737 MAX jets, pushing about 10 handovers into the second quarter. The 737 remains Boeing’s main product, and…

For so long, I’ve almost exclusively covered airlines and hotels when it comes to the travel front. In recent times, I’ve been warming up more to the concept of cruising. I recently took my first cruise in around two decades by sailing on Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, and I had an awesome experience. It’s a fascinating period for the industry, given the increasing crossover we’re seeing between luxury hotel groups and cruise ships. Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has been sailing for a couple of years, we recently saw the introduction of Four Seasons Yachts, and Orient Express Sailing Yachts and Aman at Sea are expected…

The certification makes the 17th Stormo Incursori (Raiders Wing) the first NATO unit recognized by U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command for Global Access Operations, a capability that enables air operations in austere, remote, or hostile environments. The complex U.S. special operations effort to recover the WSO (Weapon Systems Officer) of a downed U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle from inside Iran earlier this month, proved how critical some niche capabilities can be in contested environments: in scenarios where air access has to be established, assessed and managed under threat, highly specialized personnel, including Combat Controllers can make the difference…

Amazon is moving to strengthen its satellite-based mobile internet business with a deal to acquire Globalstar for about $11.57 billion, a move that would give the company satellite assets, infrastructure and spectrum as it pushes deeper into a fast-growing low-earth-orbit connectivity market largely dominated by Elon Musk’s Starlink. The company said it will pay $90 a share for Globalstar, giving shareholders the option to receive cash or Amazon stock. The transaction is expected to close in 2027. For Amazon, the deal adds another piece to its effort to build a credible rival to SpaceX in satellite communications. The company has…

ANA Holdings announced an investment in ADDress, a Tokyo-based startup that offers a subscription service for multi-location living.  Through its venture capital arm, the ANA Future Frontier Fund, the airline group is backing a company that’s trying to solve one of Japan’s most pressing social problems: what happens when rural towns empty out and homes sit vacant? How ADDress works For a monthly fee, ADDress members get access to furnished homes scattered across Japan. Instead of signing a traditional lease, subscribers can move between locations, spending a week in a coastal town, a month in the mountains, or splitting time…
