Airplane Icicles in Ohio

The winter storm arrived as predicted though, around here, it hasn't yet proven to be the "Storm of Historical Proportions" many media outlets, weather prognosticators, and politicians have prepared us for. That being said, "the rest of the story" is supposed to blow through over the next 24 hours.

The freezing rain was real enough though not to the degree of causing power outages or tree damage. The local street crews have done a good job of keeping the roads passable. Here are a couple icicle shots of the one airplane that's tied down outside our facility.



Meanwhile, back in Hangar C, the left engine is being hung on the Navajo.

Dale sorts out part of the wiring harness.

A good portion of my day was spent in a meeting. On either side of the meeting, I worked on fine-tuning a prayer card for one of our MMS families, handled several inquiries about apprenticeship, updated more forms, worked with a prospective candidate who may tour the mission on Monday, began the process of organizing for our newest apprentice family to move to Coshocton in March, took photos of the hangar activity, organized reports, and pulled some items together for a special mailing I need to organize for later this week.

Karen was up at the shop taking care of the receipting for the mission.

Thanks for the part you play in enabling us to prepare people and planes for worldwide mission service. We couldn't be here without you being back there!
