This may be a first. The Air Force has selected two instructor pilots, who happen to be husband and wife, to train as B-2 bomber pilots. Currently, Capt. Rob Makros and Capt. Beth Makros serve as T-38 IPs at Vance AFB, Okla. They will transfer to the 509th Bomb Wing, Whiteman AFB, Mo., in July. They have not always been this lucky, spending much of their six years in the Air Force apart.
The successful second flight of Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket on Nov. 13 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., also included a first for the company—the launcher’s booster stuck its landing on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean.
