#BREAKING: FAA EXTENDS MD-11 GROUNDING TO DC-10 FAMILY AFTER ENGINE DETACHMENT INCIDENT The FAA has expanded Emergency AD 2025-23-51—originally issued on November 8, 2025 for all MD-11 and MD-11F aircraft—to now include multiple MD-10 and DC-10 variants, citing shared engine-pylon structures. This action follows a serious accident in which the left-hand engine and pylon detached during takeoff. The root cause is still under investigation, but the FAA warns the unsafe condition could lead to loss of continued safe flight and landing. The grounding now covers: • MD-11 / MD-11F • MD-10-10F / MD-10-30F • DC-10-10, -10F, -15, -30, -30F (incl. KC-10A & KDC-10), DC-10-40, DC-10-40F All affected aircraft are prohibited from further flight until inspections and corrective actions are completed using an FAA-approved method. 📹: Bosscrewppe

UPS MD-11s parked at Louisville. The story of the tri-jet's decline is hard to ignore. The rise of twin-engine widebodies, combined with improvements in ETOPS, made twinjets cheaper and more attractive to airlines. This major shift happened in 1985 when the FAA first approved ETOPS (allowing 120-minute diversions), primarily for the twin-engine Boeing 767 flying over the North Atlantic. The MD-11's third engine, once an advantage, eventually became a millstone. May the Trijets Never Die. 📹: stegoplanespotting

🧐🇺🇸🇺🇦🇷🇺 America’s F-16 Scores Its First Air Victory in Ukraine, Russian Su-35 Falls from the Sky A major milestone in the air war over Ukraine. According to U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, a Ukrainian operated F-16 Fighting Falcon has successfully shot down a Russian Sukhoi Su-35 in air to air combat. This is the first confirmed aerial kill by a Ukrainian F-16 since the fighter entered service, marking a significant combat milestone for the Western supplied aircraft. The encounter highlights the growing role of F-16s in Ukraine's air defense efforts and demonstrates that one of Russia's most advanced fighters is no longer untouchable in contested skies.

A controlled blast during UTTC Technology Week 2026 in western Ukraine. The ScanJack 3500 is the heaviest mine clearance machine currently used in Ukraine. Built to clear ground too dangerous for people, it advances through sand and soil with chains tearing up the surface ahead of it. Then the mine detonates. A glimpse of the machinery now helping return mined land to safe use.

As the U.S. Marine Corps sundowns the AV-8B Harrier II after more than four decades of service, the legendary “jump jet” enters the final chapter of its operational life. With the Harrier now retired from U.S. service, the Harrier’s story is not completely over: the type remains in service only with Italy and Spain, where the unique STOVL aircraft continues to fly. To mark the USMC Harrier Sundown, here’s a 14-minute video that brings back one of my most memorable flying experiences: my flight aboard an Italian Navy TAV-8B Harrier. You can read more about that mission here: Unmistakable and iconic, the AV-8B remains one of the most fascinating combat aircraft ever built. This is my tribute to a legend that, for a little while longer, still refuses to disappear from the skies.
