This week on **The VIP Seat**, we’re covering one of the strangest weeks in aviation news yet.
The FAA moves one step closer to allowing **civilian supersonic flight** over the United States, and what that could mean for Boom Supersonic and the future of business aviation.
Plus:
- Canada’s bizarre battle between **Billy Bishop Airport expansion** and a historic nudist beach.
- China grounds virtually all general aviation around Beijing after a small aircraft crashes into a skyscraper.
- Inside the **Sun Valley billionaires conference**, where hundreds of Gulfstreams, Globals and Falcons descend on Idaho.
- A Delta airliner is struck by fireworks during Fourth of July celebrations.
- Jared Isaacman flies for Freedom 250 in his F-5 despite FAA objections.
- A hard Hudson River landing involving a Blade-booked Kodiak 100 seaplane.
- Why Part 145 repair stations are becoming one of the hottest M&A sectors in aviation.
Plus another round of **Mile High Madness**, including a barefoot helicopter pilot landing on a fishing vessel.
