The US Navy has been searching for a T-39 Sabreliner that left Chattanooga, Tenn., at 11 a.m. on Jan. 10 on a training flight, since it failed to show at NAS Pennsacola, Fla., at 3 p.m., as scheduled. The last contact with the aircraft came just 20 minutes after takeoff. On board were a Navy instructor, a Navy student, an Air Force student, and a civilian contract pilot. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Civil Air Patrol had to halt search efforts Wednesday morning because of bad weather. CAP has five aircraft from its unit at Rome, Ga., ready to pick up the search.
In his first professional move since retiring from the Space Force at the end of August, former Chief of Space Operations Gen. B. Chance Saltzman will lead the board of advisors for Voyager Technologies, the firm announced Nov. 2.
