Visuals: Pilots carried the casket of Jazz Aviation first officer Mackenzie Gunther off a plane at the Ottawa International Airport on Thursday afternoon. The bodies of the two Air Canada Express pilots killed in a collision at New York’s LaGuardia Airport on Sunday have been returned to Canada. Capt. Antoine Forest's body was then flown from Ottawa to Montréal Trudeau International Airport. Hundreds of pilots and flight staff waited in the rain, lined up in front of Air Canada’s Montreal headquarters to honour Forest. Captain Tim Perry, president of the Air Line Pilots Association Canada: “No family should go through this,” he said. “It must be the promise that when a pilot leaves to work or when anyone leaves to travel by air that they come home alive. Our work begins tomorrow to live up to that promise.” Transportation Safety Board of Canada and the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board continue to examine the circumstances that led allowing both the incoming aircraft and the fire truck were cleared onto the same runway. #pilotlife #accident #aviation

U.S. Marines@USMC·
Today, on March 27th, we recognize our Marine Raiders and their contributions to the unseen world of special operations. These elite warfighters, designated by the 0372 job series number, represent the Corps’ contributions to @USSOCOM. They are trained in direct action, special reconnaissance, counterterrorism, unconventional warfare, and numerous other unique missions. They are forged through a grueling nine-month training course teaching demolitions, diving, foreign languages, close-quarters combat, and wilderness survival, among other special training. Spiritus Invictus is embodied by all Raiders. #SpecialOps #Marines #USMC

A masterclass in joint-force logistics as the 1-228th Aviation Regt, 612th ABS, & 22nd AS loaded four UH-60L Black Hawks onto a C-5M Super Galaxy in Honduras. This is what integrated air & ground power looks like—rapid, ready, and reinforcing our global commitment. @jtfbravo

The @USArmy just made its largest single-vendor sUAS order in history: $52M for nearly 3,000 Skydio X10Ds - high precision, day/night, GPS-denied and EW resilient, super reliable ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance). This kind of capability used to cost $ M per drone. Now it’s 100x cheaper thanks to $ MMM of self-funded R&D by @SkydioHQ, combined with our civilian market scale in the tens of thousands of units per year, where we compete - and win - versus Chinese drones (the same drones that our adversaries will be using in every modern conflict). X10D was sharpened by hard lessons in Ukraine and close iterative feedback with our soldiers through initiatives like the Army’s Transformation in Contact. It is the perfect “hunter” to find targets for “killer” one-way attack drones and other munitions to strike, a tactic we’ve already seen in Ukraine. Congratulations to the @PAE_ManeuverAir on listening to their end users and doubling down on what's working. We are proud to bring world-leading drones to our warfighters and committed to doing so with unmatched value.

BREAKING: The IDF has released videos showing the destruction of the IRIS Jamaran (78) frigate of the Iranian Navy at Anzali Port (Pahlavi) on the Caspian Sea in northern Iran last night. In addition to this vessel, a number of other ships were also targeted and destroyed. The Shahid Tamjidi shipbuilding facility was also struck, in what appears to be an effort to limit Iran’s future naval construction capabilities in the Caspian Sea. These actions appear aligned with the interests of the Azerbaijan Republic in expanding its influence in the Caspian Sea, including over maritime boundaries and natural resources. #OperationLionsRoar #OperationEpicFury
