On this week\u2019s episode of AvTalk, we discuss Iran\u2019s missile attack on Israel and the consequences (so far) for commercial aviation. The NTSB shakes its fist at the FAA over moist rudders, while the FAA\u2019s investigation into United\u2019s safety system turns up nothing. Qatar Airways is taking a 25% stake in Virgin Australia, with an interesting twist. A WWII-era bomb long-buried under a taxiway at Miyazaki Airport in Japan explodes. And NOAA is getting a new pair of hurricane hunter aircraft.
\nPlus, we sit down with Capt. David Surridge, American Airlines\u2019 director of air traffic management to learn more about ADS-B IN and how the airline is working with the FAA to gain operational efficiencies and save money in the process.
