Wing Status:
Well once again the Mile High Wing has been dealt a little
adversity. Last September, as our C-45 was en route to Steamboat
Springs, the aircraft lost an engine. The skill of the pilot, and
the fact that he hadn't yet crossed the continental divide, allowed
the plane to be brought back to its home base in Boulder Colorado.
It was several months before we could get the engine off an get it
examined and the news wasn't good. The engine was lost. Not even
the case was salvageable. We are well on the way of getting back
into the air but it is going to be an expensive trip. The engine is
in La Junta Colorado for repair. So far we have raised about
$17,000 towards the repairs but that still leaves us about $20,000
short. If you would like to help out with our effort, remember that
as a 503c, non-profit, your donations are tax deductable. We have
two ways for you to donate below. Every little bit helps. |
