every minutes...
one plane, one pilot, one day, one hundred flights . . .
Good reason to smile now . . . the record is in the bag! Saturday 7 May 2011 was a great day at Illawarra Regional Airport, New South Wales, Australia, as a 44 year old aeroplane and its 61 year old pilot set a new Australian record for the most flights done in a day - and all to draw attention to the fantastic work being done worldwide by Mission Aviation Fellowship. 102 takeoffs and landings were carried out over a
10 hour period - an
average of one flight
every 6 minutes! But
MAF are doing this
24/7 in aid of the
world's most isolated
people.
