Does anyone here have any idea what https://usaviationacademy.com https://usaviationacademy.com is? A 7,000 foot runway, they also own a total of 3 airports in central Texas...with dozens of planes, 10 helicopters, and multiple private jets? All owned by about 7 different business names it looks like and 7 different non-working numbers? Apparently they teach...air to air refueling. Lol sure that is standard pilot training for Delta.
They also conveniently left open an Elasticsearch cluster with 600,000 US Air Force personnel PII records.
Yesterday it was posted about front companies acquiring massive resources in the US. Who are these people?

- viro 7y ago.... Didn't expect a random data dump
- dsfyu404ed 7y agoSo I guess the next question is who's gonna contact them and tell them about it.

- dlgeek 7y agoThose aren't USAF records. They're FAA (civilian) pilot records. I think that info is all scraped public record - see https://amsrvs.registry.faa.gov/airmeninquiry/ https://amsrvs.registry.faa.gov/airmeninquiry/ If you want help getting media attention on the breach to try to get it shamed into being closed, I'd suggest reaching out to Troy Hunt (HIBP?) or Brian Krebs.
- rshnotsecure 7y agoFascinating and thank you. Airmen is a uniquely military term, and entering into Wikipedia immediately brings up an article on Air Force ranks. It is interesting 1). That the FAA uses this term as well and 1). There seems to be an entry input for country. I guess that’s for foreign pilots? Or for US citizens who move abroad?
- WrtCdEvrydy 7y agoDon't click that... it's a lot of useful PII on an elasticsearch cluster.
