So following a busy week of maintenance, carrying out checks
on several of the avionics, installing a satellite tracking system in the
instrument panel, removing the wing struts to carry out some Non-Destructive
Testing, it struck me how cool it was how many nationalities were involved in
the week…
Here on the ground in Liberia there was myself ( British),
and our country director who is Swiss.
We do our maintenance in a hangar surrounded by Americans and Liberians
that help out.
I had two guys come from the MAF programme in Kenya, one is Finnish and one is Kenyan. We also received help and support during the week from another British guy based in Uganda and the Chief Engineer there who is Dutch. Also an avionics engineer who is Swedish was also involved…..

How awesome is it that all these people of different
nationalities, cultures and backgrounds can work together to get a plane
operational again to help transform isolated people in remote places!
