Another criminal case involving non-airworthy parts swappage has seen the sentencing of those involved, costing the perpetrators a year in prison and about $300,000 in restitution. Daniel Navarro, 50 years old, was the Vice President of Sofly Aviation Services, a parts distributor. Jorge Guerrero, 71, was the firm's Procurement & Asset Management Specialist. Their grift wasn't anything particularly complex or thought out: Sofly would buy cheap parts marked "as removed", and then fake the paperwork... Kermit Weeks has amassed more than 140 vintage military and civilian aircraft during his life. He also established the Fantasy of Flight Museum in Polk City, Florida, along Interstate I-4 which traverses Polk County. To advertise the museum and attract visitors, Weeks mounted a Douglas DC-3 at the I-4 exit near the museum. For readers of a certain age who were mesmerized by the idea of space travel, the United States’ space program culminated during the summer of 1969 when NASA’s Apollo 11 mission thrilled every American and just about every other human on the planet as the spacecraft’s Lunar Excursion Module (LEM or LM for short) touched down on the surface of the Moon. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
