CONTACT!!!! Vroom Vroommmmm

After nearly a year we are finally completing the play plane at Kpong Airfield.   Our heart felt thanks go to those who have supported this development.

So many young people here do not even begin to understand aircraft and the principles of flight.   For many of them access to the air side would be unnecessarily dangerous.   Hence the play plane.   It is a near 1:1 scale replica of a Zenith Ch801 but adapted to playing and learning within the scope of available materials.

Next up will be to find some creative artists to add the educational paint scheme!

Education and health are key focus points of all that we do here.   We use aviation and engineering as conduits and catalysts in that outreach.

A shining star

Mavis is enjoying some time in the workshops now that we have less kitchen work at this time of
year.

She is really enjoying the pace and challenges of working with steel.

Here she is removing dross from parts for a Christmas star.
