Shuttle Enterprise, the first orbiter built, will move from the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York. Space Shuttle Enterprise was never flown into space. It was used and flown during unpowered drop tests at Edwards Air Force Base.

A pilot from Edwards Air Force Base, California, became the first Air Force and government test pilot to fly the F-35 Lightning II during a test sortie at the Lockheed Martin facility January 30 at Naval Air Station Fort Worth.

Lt. Col. James Kromberg, the director of operations for the 461st Flight Test Squadron, flew the F-35, numbered AA-1, which is currently flying envelope expansion, flying qualities evaluations, subsystems testing and initial systems assessments at Fort Worth.

In a statement, the airline said, "Qantas A380 aircraft operating QF32 from Singapore to Sydney experienced an engine issue soon after take off and returned to Singapore. The aircraft had 440 passengers and 26 crew on board. In line with procedure, the pilot sought priority clearance for its return to Singapore. The aircraft landed safely at 11.45am local time."

Qantas says none of the passengers or crew were injured. The airline also said, "Qantas Chief Executive Officer, Alan Joyce said Qantas would suspend A380 services until we are confident that Qantas safety requirements have been met."

The CH-47 helicopters lifted the Rakkasans into the hills touching down with a pinnacle landing. On arrival, the weapons and other supplies of the insurgents were destroyed.

What's new in this configuration are features that may reduce the aircraft's radar signature relative to earlier model F-15s. The most obvious external change is the new conformal fuel tanks that can carry weapons like the AIM-9 and AIM-120 air-to-air missiles, or, ground attack payloads such as the JDAM and small diameter bomb. The munitions are carried inside the tanks hidden from radar. This according to Boeing in its announcement of the new product.
