Ryan and Suzanne are back breaking down the biggest, strangest, and most headline-grabbing UFO stories of the week... and this one is packed! This week: Obama's latest alien comments (and how they compare to what Reggie Watts shared about Obama and Clinton ), the chaotic FAA shutdown over El Paso and alleged “mothership” footage, and new FLIR UAP video released by Corbell and Knapp showing extreme maneuvers captured by a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper. Plus, Bob Lazar's surprise appearance in Austin, Rep. Eric Burlison's push for access to a rumored “building-sized UFO” site, and two new military whistleblowers speaking out. We also share a heartfelt message from Nick Pope about his health and reflect on his legacy in bringing UAP discussions into the mainstream.

This week, following an unusual situation that erupted in the skies over El Paso, Texas, last week that placed the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on high alert, the U.S. Department of Defense revealed the recent testing of a new counter-drone laser weapon that was reportedly deployed to neutralize a security threat at the U.S. southern border. However, as further reporting has revealed, it seems there was more to this story... and of course, plenty of UAP speculation involving alleged sightings of aerial objects in American airspace.  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at this alarming incident, what we know, and also its similarities to events in 2023 that resulted in the shoot-downs of several "unidentified aerial objects" over North America. Finally, what can we learn from a deeper look at the history of similar incidents involving alleged UFOs from over the decades?  Want to advertise/sponsor The Micah Hanks Program?

In this episode of More Right Rudder, host Sarah Staudt, NAFI's program development manager, sits down with Clayton Sander, a Gen Z flight instructor and owner of AeroEdge LLC, to talk about generational differences in aviation training. Social media stereotypes often paint Gen Z instructors as distracted or overly dependent on technology. Sander offers a thoughtful inside perspective, explaining how growing up as “digital natives” shapes how his generation processes information, adapts to new tools, and approaches learning. Staudt and Sander explore how today's new CFIs face an unprecedented volume of knowledge requirements. Modern instructors must be fluent in legacy instruments, glass cockpits, electronic flight bags, and increasingly complex handbooks and FAA guidance, all before they even begin building real teaching experience. Sander emphasizes that while tools and timelines have changed, the heart of flight instruction has not. Students still learn best through relationships, encouragement, and instructors who understand how to teach, not just how to fly.

Episode: 00306 Released on February 16, 2026 Description: Real-Time Crime Centers continue to expand in both scope and responsibility, and drones are quickly becoming one of the most discussed emerging tools in the field. In this sixth installment of the Real Crime All The Time series on Analyst Talk with Jason Elder, Nikki North shares how Drone as First Responder (DFR) programs are being integrated into crime centers, what analysts and managers need to consider, and how staffing, training, legal concerns, and operational policies all play a role. Nikki breaks down how drones function as mobile cameras, the importance of FAA regulations, night flight training, weather considerations, and how agencies are strategically placing base stations based on call volume. The conversation also highlights how drones can support proactive policing, site assessments, disaster response, and real-time situational awareness beyond traditional camera networks. The episode also touches on a major career transition as Nikki moves from the public sector to the private industry, discussing why analysts are increasingly making that shift and how technology platforms are evolving toward a “single pane of glass” for analytical workflows. This episode is especially valuable for RTCC analysts, crime analysts, and agency leaders who are evaluating new technology adoption while balancing staffing, policy, and operational realities.

Chuck Todd takes a hard look at the state of American governance and institutional trust — or the lack of it. He starts by reflecting on the historical significance of three consecutive one-term presidents, ranking his top five most underrated commanders-in-chief and arguing that both Biden and Trump are unlikely to be viewed as consequential a century from now. From there, Todd pivots to a searing indictment of the current moment: from the Epstein reckoning exposing the government's inability to tell the truth, to DHS being treated as a political plaything by Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, to the DOD endangering lives in the El Paso FAA incident with zero accountability, to Moderna alleging that HHS refused to even review an mRNA flu vaccine under RFK Jr.'s watch. He connects the dots across a pattern of institutional dishonesty — a Justice Department focused on narrative management, masked ICE agents no one can justify, a fired antitrust chief clearing the way for powerful interests, and a "hostage system" style of governing that holds federal paychecks as leverage — making the case that when the government lies this often, it forfeits the benefit of the doubt on everything, and that the Epstein scandal isn't just a story about one man, but a mirror reflecting a system designed to protect the powerful. Then, Gene Sperling — the only person to serve as Director of the National Economic Council under two presidents (Clinton and Obama), a senior advisor to President Biden who oversaw the American Rescue Plan, and a consultant and co-writer on NBC's The West Wing — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation. Sperling shares the wild story of how he ended up in Santa Monica, his brush with Aaron Sorkin's legal troubles, and his insider take on how real Washington compares to its fictional portrayals. The conversation then turns to Sperling's deep expertise on the economy, from his defense of the Biden administration's "soft landing" amid global post-Covid inflation to the political lessons of how rising prices have sunk presidencies on both sides of the aisle — including Biden's own re-election bid. The back half of the episode looks squarely at the future. Sperling, who says he's unlikely to serve in another Democratic administration, offers a forceful argument about what comes next: the rising threat of unchecked corporate and tech power, the urgent need for AI policy that puts working people first, and the lessons of globalization that policymakers can't afford to repeat. Drawing on themes from his book Economic Dignity, he makes the case that Americans are hungry for leaders who pair optimism with a real confrontation of economic injustice — and warns that a handful of AI and crypto companies, flush with lobbying dollars, could end up shaping the structure of the economy if left unchallenged. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the publishing of the Communist Manifesto and argues that while its critiques of the excesses of capitalism were correct… it’s revolutionary prescriptions led to the worst authoritarian states in modern history. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment. Get your wardrobe sorted and your gift list handled with Quince. Don't wait!

It's 1,067 days until the legally defined end of the 47th presidency, but we await a legal and fair midterm to see how things play out. Until then, Pam Bondi sucks. Also, she had a Congressional Committee hearing, where she was anti-semitic, lied under oath, and generally obfuscated the DOJ being in contempt of Congress with no fear of repercussion.

A Hidden Gem Takes Flight Winchester Regional Airport has quietly transformed from a modest local airfield into a major economic driver for the Shenandoah Valley. In a recent episode of The Valley Today, Executive Director Nick Sabo talks with host Janet Michael to unveil stunning new data that reveals just how significant this transformation has been. The Numbers Tell a Compelling Story The Virginia Department of Aviation recently released its 2025 economic impact study, and the results are nothing short of remarkable. Winchester Regional Airport now supports 610 jobs—a dramatic leap from the 179 jobs reported in the 2017 study. Moreover, the airport generates $28.5 million in annual wages for the local workforce and contributes an impressive $46.9 million in gross state product to the Commonwealth's economy. These figures represent more than just statistics. They reflect over $40 million in capital investment made over the past six years, including the construction of a stunning new terminal building that now serves as a community hub. As Nick jokingly noted, the project took so long that he went from having "long hair like Fabio" to his current look by the time it was completed. More Than Just Recreational Flying Many residents assume Winchester Regional Airport primarily serves hobbyist pilots storing planes in hangars. However, this perception couldn't be further from reality. In fact, recreational aviation represents only a minority of the airport's activity. Instead, the airport serves as a critical gateway for business aviation. CEOs from major retailers who regularly fly into Winchester for meetings and site visits. This capability allows executives to bypass the congestion of major commercial airports like Dulles and arrive within minutes of their actual destination. Furthermore, the airport supports essential services that many residents never consider. Medical evacuation flights, law enforcement operations, agricultural surveying, and flight training all happen regularly at the facility. These diverse operations would create significant congestion at larger airports, demonstrating the value of the nation's extensive network of regional airports. Why You Won't See Southwest Airlines Here One question Nick fields constantly is why Winchester doesn't offer commercial airline service. The answer, he explains, comes down to economics and regulation. To accommodate commercial airlines, the airport would need to meet FAR Part 139 Airport Certification standards—a regulatory hurdle requiring tens of millions of dollars in infrastructure investment. Additionally, Winchester's proximity to Dulles International Airport makes competing for airline service economically unfeasible. Rather than viewing this as a limitation, Nick emphasizes the tremendous value the airport already provides through its current operations. He also hints at exciting possibilities on the horizon, including smaller air taxis that could operate under existing regulations. A Community Asset by Design Winchester Regional Airport benefits from exceptional planning that has made it a good neighbor. Unlike many airports surrounded by residential development, Winchester's facility sits in an area with compatible land use. This thoughtful approach by Frederick County Planning ensures that noise complaints remain minimal and the airport can operate effectively without disrupting nearby communities. The new terminal building exemplifies this community-focused approach. Designed intentionally to connect with residents in meaningful ways, the facility has hosted the Apple Blossom Air Show, Wings and Wheels events, Girls in Aviation Day, and numerous business center gatherings. The building even features a public art display from the Shenandoah Arts Council on its second floor. Nick enthusiastically invites community members to visit anytime—no special reason required. Visitors can enjoy lunch while watching aircraft operations, tour the facility, or simply experience aviation up close in ways impossible at major commercial airports. Building Tomorrow's Aerospace Workforce Winchester Regional Airport plays a crucial role in developing the region's aerospace workforce. Two flight schools—Aviation Adventures and Aero Elite—operate from the main terminal, offering pathways for both professional pilots and recreational enthusiasts. However, Nick emphasizes that aviation careers extend far beyond piloting. The industry needs aircraft maintenance technicians, air traffic controllers, meteorologists, engineers, architects, and avionics specialists. Many of these careers don't require four-year degrees, making them accessible through apprenticeships, credentials, or associate degree programs. The airport partners extensively with local educational institutions, including public school CTE programs, Laurel Ridge Community College, and Shenandoah University. Notably, Laurel Ridge offers a comprehensive drone program that teaches students about commercial drone operation—a field requiring FAA licensing for any commercial use, from real estate photography to agricultural surveying. Interestingly, the pathway to becoming a commercial pilot has shifted dramatically. Twenty or thirty years ago, military service was virtually the only route. Today, private flight schools like those at Winchester have become the primary training ground for commercial airline pilots, fundamentally changing how the industry develops talent. Economic Development's Secret Weapon Patrick Barker and the Frederick County Economic Development Authority understand what many residents don't: having a capable regional airport is crucial for attracting new industry and retail development. Nearly every major company operating in the region has utilized the airport at some point. The airport's value extends beyond simply moving executives around. It opens the region to aerospace-related economic development—opportunities that can only exist where capable airport infrastructure is present. This sector diversification strengthens the local economy and creates high-quality jobs across various skill levels. Looking Toward the Future As Winchester Regional Airport approaches its centennial in 2037, Nick envisions continued smart planning and adaptation to transformational forces reshaping aviation. Advanced Air Mobility—encompassing drones, unmanned systems, and new aircraft technologies—promises to lower operating costs and create new business opportunities. While the airport monitors these emerging technologies closely, Nick emphasizes that the facility's primary responsibility remains meeting the region's current needs. The airport will continue investing strategically while positioning itself to capitalize on future opportunities like air taxis and other innovative aviation services. The role of general aviation airports in their communities is evolving rapidly. Winchester Regional Airport stands ready to embrace this evolution, continuing to serve as an economic engine, workforce development hub, and community asset for the Shenandoah Valley. An Invitation to Explore For residents who haven't visited the new terminal at 491 Airport Road, Nick extends a warm invitation. The facility stands as a testament to what thoughtful investment and community partnership can achieve. Whether you're interested in aviation careers, curious about the industry, or simply want to watch planes while enjoying lunch, Winchester Regional Airport welcomes you. As the economic impact study clearly demonstrates, this isn't just "our little airport" anymore—it's a sophisticated transportation asset driving regional prosperity and opening doors to opportunity for generations to come.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they sort through conflicting government explanations for the sudden air traffic stoppage in El Paso,  the Trump administration squeezing the economic life out of Cuba's Communist regime, and Democrats gaslighting the public about GOP election security efforts.First, they try to nail down the truth about why the FAA ordered a 10-day pause in air traffic around El Paso late Tuesday night. Was it a threatening Mexican drone, a party balloon mistaken for a drone, or testing of anti-drone laser technology? And there are also conflicting explanations about which part of government is responsible. Next, they're pleased to see the Trump administration playing hardball with Cuba by cutting off oil supplies to the Communist regime. The economic impact is real and immediate, but what is the long-term U.S. plan there?Finally, they shake their heads as Michigan Rep. Hillary Scholten and other Democrats baselessly claim that requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote would block married women who changed their names from voting.

We then shift to El Paso where the FAA shut down nthe airspace for some pretty peculiar reasons. Next we go to Australia where the 6th of a group of satanic pedophiles has been arested. Back to America where one of the leaders of the Benghazi attack was "extradited" by US forces, to America to stand trial. Speaking of international relations NATO has agreed to shift 2 command positions to European leaders. Kier Starmer is facing mounting pressure to resign after the connections have been made between an ambassador he appointed and Jeffrey Epstein. We then discuss how Pam Bondi is floundering while being questioned by the House Judiciary Committee... it's not a good look. Then we talk about the armored car robbery that took p[lace in Italy this week.

//The Wire//2300Z February 11, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: MASS SHOOTING REPORTED IN CANADA. MAJOR AIRSPACE CLOSURES REPORTED ALONG USA/MEX BORDER.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Canada: Yesterday afternoon a mass shooting was reported in Tumbler Ridge, a small town in British Columbia. The attack began with the assailant murdering two people inside a private residence (at least one of which was the suspect's mother). After these initial murders, the suspect maneuvered to Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, where he conducted the mass shooting, which ended after the suspect took his own life. Concerning casualties, a total of 9x fatalities have been reported so far, 6x fatalities at the school, 2x at the residence, and the shooter himself. Roughly 25x others were also wounded during the attack.Analyst Comment: Regarding the motive, this shooting appears to be the standard transgender mass shooting. As the shooting was ongoing, authorities referred to the shooter as a "woman in a dress", and used the term "gunperson" to describe the suspect. After some time, the suspect was identified as Jesse van Rootselaar, who was a male transitioning to female.-HomeFront-Texas: Substantial airspace closures have been reported throughout the region, which have been issued and retracted. Early this morning two Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) were issued for two areas along the Mexican border. NOTAM 6/2233 was issued just before midnight yesterday evening, which grounded all aircraft at El Paso International Airport for a period of ten days; no flights, no exceptions. A similar flight restriction (TFR 6/2234) was also imposed for an area to the west of El Paso, along the Mexican border.A few hours after the El Paso Airport NOTAM was issued, it was abruptly retracted. NOTAM 6/2234 (the area along the border adjacent to El Paso) remains in effect as before, with this airspace sector being closed for the next ten days.This afternoon, the White House stated that this was all related to an imminent threat involving Cartel drone activity, and aircraft were grounded due to counter-UAS measures being deployed, which might have inadvertently targeted civilian aircraft.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The airspace closure of El Paso alone is very interesting, as the type of airspace closure is extremely rare due to the location, timing, and scope of the closure. As a result, there are a few wildly differing possibilities as to what actually happened.In short, last night the FAA dropped a no-fly-zone akin to what was issued on 9/11 directly over the El Paso airport. The wording of the NOTAMs (or rather, the lack thereof) is also highly interesting as no concessions were made for any sort of exception, at all. This was a hard-line "we will shoot you down if you take off" kind of no-fly-zone. No medical aircraft, no police helicopters, absolutely nothing allowed to be in the air, not even military aircraft were granted an exemption.As to what the truth actually is, it's anyone's guess and probably a blend of all of the theories expressed so far. It's certainly possible that the official story is true, and that Cartel drones breached US airspace, an various emergency measures were employed to "discombobulate" the drones. It's also possible that this was an overreaction brought on by personality clashes in El Paso, and not an actual threat. Most seriously, it's equally possible that the threat was not the standard Cartel recon drones, but something vastly more dangerous, which presented a direct threat to civilian aircraft.Cartel drones have been operating in the border region for many years, both for the purposes of smuggling drugs across the border, but also for conducting reconnaissance of US Border Patrol positions (though these recon flights don't normally take place at night). These flight

El Paso, TX airspace shutdown has drawn attention due to no explanation given. In this episode, we examine the FAA's decision to temporarily close airspace at El Paso International Airport for "special security reasons." The restriction was initially expected to last 10 days, but was lifted and flights resumed normal operations. Reports indicate the closure was connected to military activities from nearby Fort Bliss, possibly involving drone operations or related exercises. A similar brief airspace restriction occurred in New Orleans around the same time. Is American airspace safe?

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a chaotic House oversight hearing on ICE operations, the federal government's sudden halt and restart of flights in El Paso, and California's controversial “jock tax” that reportedly cost Seattle's quarterback more than he earned for winning the Super Bowl.First, they break down the theatrics from Tuesday's House immigration hearing, where Democrats grilled ICE Director Todd Lyons over enforcement actions. New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver went so far as to ask Lyons whether he believed he was going to Hell for ICE's policies. Jim notes the absurdity of her questions and the massive double standard Democrats emply on matters of faith.Next, they scratch their heads as the Federal Aviation Administration orders a 10-day clearance of air space around El Paso, Texas. But a few hours later, the order was lifted. At the time Jim and Greg recorded, the official explanation was the incursion of a drone from a Mexican cartel. Since then the explanations have only gotten more strange.Finally, they comment on the insanity of California's "jock tax" which cost Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold roughly $71,000 more than he earned for winning the game. Jim and Greg discuss how extreme this policy is and how these sorts of laws could impact the success of certain teams down the road.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your sleep with Brooklyn Bedding and get 30% off sitewide at https://BrooklynBedding.com when you use promo code 3ML at checkout.Find your way forward with BetterHelp when you sign up at https://www.BetterHelp.com/3ML to get 10% off your first month.Upgrade your wardrobe with Mizzen & Main — get 20% off your first purchase at https://MizzenandMain.com with promo code 3ML20.New episodes every weekday. 

ICE is Tracking Protestors. Vance Tells Olympians To Shut Up. Chaos At El Paso Airport. Strikes In Mexico Next? Grand Jury Won't Indict Kelly & Co.  With AG Pam Bondi testifying before Congress and shamefully defending Trump's Epstein connections and ICE's lawlessness, and a major US airport shut down potentially due to drones from Mexico invading Texas airspace, Paul Rieckhoff and independent veteran running for Senate in Nebraska Dan Osborn dive deep into the issues the establishment wants to ignore: the urgent demand for the full release of the Epstein files, the lack of accountability for ICE's "dark prisons" and domestic incursions, and the "surge pricing" of groceries that is crushing American families. From the FAA halting flights in El Paso due to cartel drones to the "un-American" politicization of the Olympics by JD Vance, this episode is a masterclass in staying vigilant against chaos, corruption, the super rich and demanding transparency from those in power Nebraska's independent surge is no longer just a "tip of the iceberg" story—it's the tip of the spear.  Dan Osborn returns to the show to break down his statistically tied race against GOP incumbent Senator Pete Ricketts. As Ricketts spends millions to protect his seat, Osborn is fueling a "paycheck populism" movement powered by 25,000 individual donors and a refusal to take corporate PAC money. This is the ultimate David vs. Goliath battle in the heart of the country, and the stakes for the Senate have never been higher. This is perhaps the most important Senate race in the country—because it's more than about Nebraska—it's the people vs the ultra-rich, partisan and powerful.  Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.

Airspace over El Paso was temporarily shut down on Wednesday. The Trump administration blamed the issue on drug cartels flying drones, but multiple reports say the closure was triggered by the Pentagon testing a new anti-drone defense system without giving the FAA enough time to assess its danger to commercial flights.

   We have absolute chaos on the southern border as the FAA has closed the El Paso airport for the next ten days.  Immediately people speculate the Mexican cartels are prepared to fight back on Trump's crackdown by shooting down airplanes.      Also on the border in Arizona, authorities detain a man in Rio Rico to question him about the Nancy Guthrie case.  They released him after 7 hours and is not believed to have any connection and that's a problem.  The man is hispanic and you'd better believe the left is going to go nuts over this.    Trump gives great economic news and a bold prediction.  A senator from Indiana has started a trucker tipline to turn in companies that hire illegal alien drivers, Cuba has cut off international flights as they are running out of fuel on the island and the death of Curt Cobain has a new theory 32 years later.   In sports, the Royals reported to Surprise, Arizona and much to our surprise, a reputable firm has predicted the Royals winning the division.   The Rangers have the most awesome retro jersey giveway ever later this year and an olympian wins a media and begs forgiveness from his girlfriend on live tv.    Our Final Final is about teenage golfer Charlie Woods who has big shoes to fill.  He's decided where he's playing college golf.

After releasing home security footage outside Nancy Guthrie's homes, the FBI say they're looking at "persons of interest." A new jobs report suggests the labor market is turning a corner. Democrats are making moves to repeal President Donald Trump's tariffs imposed by the Trump Administration. The FAA has lifted an hours long ban on airspace surrounding a west Texas airport. Plus, the Trump Administration has altered the first national monument dedicated to LGBTQ rights, and critics are speaking up.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The FAA has strangely lifted the El Paso airspace restrictions. We dive into Craig Carton's "Todd Hundley" prank on Pete Hoffman, Gio's love for gullible coworkers, and Evan's story about Gio parking his car for him. Jerry's final update features Rory's take on the Super Bowl, Klint Kubiak and Marc Davis on Fernando Mendoza, and Peter Schwartz's Indoor Football League ties.

Mike argues that general aviation aircraft are often over-maintained, wasting both owners' time and money while straining already limited mechanic capacity. He believes the industry should shift its focus toward on-condition, or reliability-centered, maintenance. Mechanics, he says, need to be trained to think critically—not just follow the manufacturer's book. By applying reliability-centered maintenance and working on-condition, our existing mechanics could be more efficient. Mike also outlines what a healthy, collaborative relationship between owners and mechanics should look like. SavvyAviation has introduced the free, FAA-accepted SavvyCertified training course designed for mechanics studying for Inspection Authorization renewal. Mike reports that many aircraft owners signed up for the course and find it valuable. He also has a new podcast called Aviation Masters. Mike is a well-known aviation writer, teacher, aviation type club tech rep, aircraft-owner advocate, and entrepreneur. He assists aircraft owners with their maintenance problems through his lectures, articles, and books. Mike is a National Aviation Maintenance Technician of the Year and has previously appeared in Episode 446 (April 5, 2017) and in Episode 667 (August 25, 2021). Aviation News Allied Pilots Association Delivers Scathing Ultimatum to American Management In a letter to the American Airlines Group Board of Directors, the Allied Pilots Association (APA) Board of Directors says, “Our airline is on an underperforming path and has failed to define an identity or a strategy to correct course” and “…it is the result of persistent patterns of operational, cultural, and strategic shortcomings.” “For more than a year, APA has voiced concerns regarding management's ability to turn the corner. Management has been given repeated opportunities to articulate a credible strategy and demonstrate measurable improvement. Those opportunities have passed without meaningful change. Despite repeated assurances, the operation continues to struggle under predictable stressors, exposing systemic weaknesses in preparation, execution, and decision making. These consequences are shouldered by our customers and employees every day. “ “These failures have negatively impacted the financial performance of our company and frustrated all stakeholders, to include shareholders, for far too long.” “American is no longer best in class financially, operationally, or in customer service. The pilots of American want our company to win and dominate the competition, not just survive and compete. Our careers are intrinsically tied to the fate and performance of this once-great airline.” The Allied Pilots Association (APA) is the collective bargaining agent for American Airlines (AA)  pilots. Founded in 1963 and representing more than 16,000 pilots, the APA says it is the world’s largest independent pilots' union. “Shame On You”: American Airlines Flight Attendants Call for Shareholder Coup to Oust CEO Unlike the APA, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA) is calling for American Airlines’ chief executive, Robert Isom, to step down. In an internal memo addressed to Isom, APFA Chicago O'Hare base president Justin Patterson says, “I would like to say, sleeping on floors is NOT normal. Shame on you for trying to normalize this inhumane treatment. Doing the same thing on repeat and expecting different results [is] the definition of insanity.”  Patterson asks, “Do you intend on running this airline with piss poor planning and posting minuscule profits again in 2026?” And “This company failed more than just the Flight Attendants… they failed everyone who works here. American Airlines failed our shareholders. They were derelict in their duties to our shareholders.” APFA is the official crew union that represents more than 28,000 AA flight attendants. Passengers Left Stunned By Miniature Tray Tables on American Airlines New Long-Haul A321XLR American Airlines flight attendant Heather Poole has posted on X photos of the new Economy cabin tray tables. Table depth is half what you'd normally expect from a tray table. A standard laptop will overhang the smaller tables, and the standard AA long-haul meal tray will as well. The table does not fold out or extend. Pressure mounts on American Airlines CEO as carrier lags rivals In 2025, Delta Air Lines posted $5 billion in net income with a 7.9% profit margin. United Airlines posted $3.3 billion in net income with a 5.7% margin. American Airlines made $111 million last year with a 0.2% margin. AOPA's Hiring a Crisis Communications Firm AOPA's board has reportedly hired a crisis‑management firm on a $250,000 retainer to handle intense backlash over the abrupt departure of CEO Darren Pleasance on February 4, 2026. Off-Duty FAA Inspector Claims He Got Lifetime Ban from United After He Pointed Out Alleged Safety Concerns Paul Asmus said that after a May 2022 flight where he pointed out his safety concerns, United removed him from the flight and gave him a lifetime travel ban. Asmus is suing United for $12.75 million in damages. The civil suit claims loss of wages, emotional distress, and punitive damages. Asmus, an FAA Inspector but off-duty, claims that he noticed a “torn seat-back pocket at his assigned seat,” which “impaired the ability to secure and access the emergency briefing card” and a passenger standing in the aisle while the aircraft pushed back from the gate. Asmus believed that he had an obligation to report the violations he observed and took photographs for an FAA report. Audit Initiated of Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy The U.S. Department of Transportation, Office of Inspector General announced the initiation of an audit. The Memorandum, Audit Announcement | Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy [PDF] (Project ID 26A3002A000), dated February 5, 2025, states that: “…the Academy is facing considerable challenges with training, including a shortage of qualified instructors, training capacity limitations, an outdated curriculum, and high training failure rates. Given the importance of increasing the number of certified controllers to safely manage the NAS, we are initiating this audit. The audit objectives will be to assess (1) FAA's efforts to address the Academy instructor shortages, training limitations, and trainee failure rates and (2) the Academy's progress with updating the air traffic controller training program curriculum.” The OIG plans to begin the audit “in the coming weeks.” The Office of Inspector General (OIG) works within the Department of Transportation (DOT) to promote the efficiency and effectiveness of DOT programs and operations and to detect and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.  See the OIG Active Audits list.
