February Update from the Flight Deck

We saw a nice increase in activity in February- 7 hours more flying time than January.  Total flight hours:  20.3


PASSENGERS:  Among our many passengers, we were able to transport the team from the US that facilitated the spiritual retreat for the Bongolo international mission workers.  Here they are (standing, middle, blue shirt and yellow shirt) with the team.

VIP PASSENGER:  The national church president, Pastor Victor  (center in photo), used the airplane's services to get to and from some meetings at Bongolo Hospital.  Rob, our chief pilot, said he had a great chat with Pastor Victor enroute.




CARGO: Among the many suitcases, medicines, groceries, and medical equipment transported in February, was this large box weighing over 300 pounds.  This is the automatic transfer switch that will work in concert with the new transformer to help keep power flowing.



EQUIPMENT: iPads have become a very handy tool in the cockpit.  We now have a nice "yoke mount" for our iPad mini (like the one pictured here).  We need your help to keep a good stock of tools and equipment for the program.  You can partner with us for this purpose by clicking  HERE to find out more about the our 2014 Projects.
