FlightAware, the aviation data giant owned by Collins Aerospace (a Raytheon subsidiary), filed a lawsuit against prediction market platform Kalshi on August 10, accusing the company of improperly using its flight data, trademarks, and branding.
Two days later, FlightAware voluntarily dismissed the case without prejudice.
