Example prompt: Pull the latest aviation news from AVweb and Simple Flying — I want up to 20 articles from the last 24 hours, focused on airline fleet changes and aircraft orders.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need curated, aviation-specific news from trusted industry sources (AVweb and Simple Flying) rather than general news aggregators. It is ideal for logistics, travel, or operations agents that need timely updates on airline fleets, routes, aircraft safety, and orders — especially when filtering by recency or source is required.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow and no articles were published in that period
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '2days' instead of '2d') may cause a parsing error
- Requesting limit above 50 returns a validation error
- Unknown src enum value returns an error
- Temporary upstream feed unavailability may return empty or stale results

## Output

A list of aviation news articles including headlines, publication source (AVweb or Simple Flying), timestamps, summaries, and links — filtered optionally by keyword, source, result count, and freshness window.
