LAS RUNWAY EXCURSION A Dassault Falcon 50 Reg: N200SG rejected takeoff on Harry Reid’s Runway 1L Sunday morning (~11 AM), went off the end of the runway and made contact with the perimeter fence. Donnie Wahlberg confirmed he and his team/friends were on board. No injuries. Aircraft took some damage. ADS-B showed peak groundspeed around 121 kts before the abort. Temporary ground stop and runway closures caused delays. Wahlberg: “These pilots saved our lives… we ran out of runway.” Details on what exactly happened have not been disclosed. I’ll update when additional information is released. #LAS #AviationIncident #N200SG @theATCapp #Aviation #Falcon50

On October 17 around 4 p.m. MDT, a fire ignited and spread rapidly due to high winds during live-fire training (Exercise APOLLO SHOOTER) involving 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry at CFB Wainwright, Alberta. It overtook the unit area.

The cause remains under investigation; officials have said there are no indications of terrorism or outside interference.
Fatalities & injuries confirmed after a serious incident at CFB Wainwright sparked a major wind-driven fire that spread beyond the base. Edmonton hospitals on Code Orange as local facilities were overwhelmed. Unconfirmed reports claim an artillery round hit a gas well during live-fire training, triggering secondary detonations. Cause still under investigation. Multiple aircraft, helicopters, and a C-130 responded to assist with the mass casualty. Thoughts with those affected. #CFBWainwright #Alberta
