Its been a long process for my school as they looked into purchasing an additional airplane sense before I was around. After raising enough money and prayers they found a "newish" Cessna 172, equipped with the Garmin G1000 "glass cockpit" navigation system, down in Florida. Very long story short, the new plane landed at the Three Hills airport on Friday afternoon. Basically it is the schools fourth 172 which will provide more oppertunites for flights now, sense the schedule board stays very booked up. In case you are like me and wonderingare mission group going to be using this new kind of technology and will it be dependable in the bush. The reassured me that indeed this is the way things are moving towards, and it will make everything safer as well. By the way Freezing Wind is what we sometimes the name we call the plane, sense it registration letters are FWIND. W actually had an article written up abou the program and the plane and you can check it out along with more pictures below.
