Photo Update from MMS

Thanks for your prayers. I had a great drive up to MMS Aviation. The car ran great, I was blessed by beautiful weather, traffic was very light with only one slowdown for construction, and it turned out to be another perfectly "pointless" drive (meaning I didn't receive any speeding tickets!). 

It's fun to be back in the hangar with everyone for a week. Here's a photo of "everyone".

Here's "The Crew" at MMS Aviation.

Here are some snapshots of some of the crew working on a project, a project yet to be started, and two projects near completion.

Current Project--Missions Wings Cessna 206; Rebuild and Repair
Sharee reassembles the components of a flap attach point.

Ben "drives" while Chuck "bucks" rivets securing new aluminum skin to the 206 airframe.

Jack pre-fits a flap rib he's fabricating that will save the operator $150 over purchasing it new.

Future Project
 A United Indian Mission Cessna 206 needing fuselage repairs.

Two Projects Near Completion
Dale and Josh prepare to crate a completed engine overhaul for Mission Aviation Fellowship.

Mercy Air's helicopter is ready to ship back to Africa after a complete restoration.

Lord willing I'll head south Saturday morning to start the new week back at my office in Graham, North Carolina.

Thank you for being so invested in preparing people and airplanes for worldwide missionary service!

Thanks for the update. Always interesting and inspiring … just like Nate Gordon’s book. Airborne at the End of the Earth
Makes me appreciate this ministry even more 🙏

It's fun to work together in God's work, isn't it?
