General Aviation on a Mission: Wings of Hope Raffle Plane Offers Proven Utility, Heritage of Service to Humanity - A Video Review

 

EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019: General Aviation - Cessna 182, 185 and 206 Workhorses

The Aero Experience year-round coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019, sponsored by Elite Aviation, continues with a look at the workhorses of general aviation - the Cessna 182, 185 and 206 line of single-engine piston aircraft. We take this diversion from our airshow coverage to present this pictorial view of the aircraft types we are currently covering for our new sponsor, Wings of Hope. These aircraft combine the performance and efficiency needed for family transportation, cross-country flying and humanitarian service work from land and water bases. Here we have a selection of various configurations of these aircraft as seen throughout the week.

Wings of Hope has provided Cessna 182, 185 and 206 aircraft for use in humanitarian missions in the U.S. and around the world:

November General Aviation (and More!) Survey Part Two

By Carmelo Turdo

The Aero Experience looks back on last week's visit to St. Louis Downtown Airport in this edition of General Aviation (and More!). Here we present a collection of the general aviation aircraft we encountered undergoing maintenance at Big River Aviation, parked on the apron or transiting the airport. Included here is the first flight of the pretty green and white Piper Geronimo since arriving over a year ago for preparation for service with Manos de Compasion in Guatemala. We hope that you will enjoy this photo essay, and you may see yourself here somewhere if you look closely!
