How many people can you fit in a Kodiak?


The answer to that is 74...well 74 people over the course of 10 flights.

We were very busy giving rides to some students from Western Michigan Aviation Academy. This is a new charter high school for students that are interested in aviation as a career.  We were there to help start the school year out with a thrilling ride in the Kodiak to almost 160 total students over a two day period.  It was a great time seeing the smiles as they bounded out of the airplane, chatting and talking with their friends.  For some it was their very first flight and they were nervous when I first sent them off on the flight but were grinning from ear to ear when I opened up the rear door.

Tomorrow we will head over to Virginia and then to Smoketown Pennsylvania.  This has been my second business trip away from Renae and Caleb and I am excited about return home already.  This has been a great opportunity for me to be able to gain some more flight time in the Kodiak as well as meet a lot of people that have been praying and supporting Spokane Turbine Center.
