Early this afternoon a call came over the MMS speaker system to gather around the 206 for prayer. After several days of paperwork, it was time for the airworthiness flight test. We assembled in front of the plane for a time of thanksgiving and prayer for the ministry that will be using the 206 in South Africa. After months of finding parts, fabricating others, and lots of learning opportunities for apprentices and staff members alike, it was time to finally fly the airplane. What a wonderful sight to see the plane in the air for the first time since it came to MMS for repair and to envision it being using for future ministry. This plane will now be dissassembled, put in a shipping crate, and shipped to Africa.
