Chad 206 Update

It took a year to restore and repair, it was all together three days, it flew three hours, passed it's FAA inspection without a hitch, and now it's already being taken apart!

The shipping container arrived at MMS last night. We're providing assistance to a missionary from Canada who has come down to oversee the containerization of the airplane. He will ultimately travel over to South Africa to reassemble the airplane.

Here is the container and the 206 inside Hangar C.

Work is blazing along on the Honduran 206. I hope to have more pictures for you next week. The floor panels are almost installed. One wing is ready for paint. The other wing is nearing completion, and the vertical stabilizer is back on the fabrication jig.

Karen was up at the mission today. She's going to take on the project of updating and upgrading the wall-map of our graduates and projects. We'll include a photo of the wall-map in a future posting.

I spent the first part of my morning working on a communication project then finished my morning leading a couple from Detroit on a tour of the facility. The afternoon was spent in a meeting with Dwight, working on the December GroundCrew, and handling some last minute loose ends to wrap up the week.

There are a lot of exciting things going on at MMS. Thanks for being part of it all through your gifts and prayers!
