Introducing the Kodiak...


So this is our new plane. We don't actually have it here yet... We're hoping for a July arrival. Right now this beauty is in Nampa being studied/adjusted by the crew there. This is a brand new type of plane called "Kodiak". It was designed specifically with the mission field in mind. This particular plane is number 11 off the assembly line. We are very excited about this plane and can't wait until it gets here! The idea is that this plane, which requires a shorter runway than our caravans, will replace two of our cessna 206 aircraft. The Kodiak uses jet fuel as opposed to the avgas used by the 206. Avgas is very difficult to purchase throughout the entire world whereas jet fuel is cheaper and easier to find.
Ain't she a beaut?
