Cloud Nine Rescue Flights

As you know, over the past month Cloud Nine Rescue Flights has been operating at severely reduced capacity due to the failure of two of the major flight instrument on Sugar Pop, our Cessna 310. Today, I am happy to say that, with your generous support, we have received the funding needed to repair this airplane and return it to service saving the lives of homeless pets!

The aircraft that we fly are very reliable and seldom let us down. In this case, the instruments we were replacing were over 25 years old. Although they are were high quality precision instruments, they did not owe us or anyone else anything. The unit we have selected to replace them, an Aspen EFD1000Pro, is not only the most cost-effective option in this case, but it is also a new and advanced unit that will increase the capability of the aircraft, and we expect to provide us reliable service for years to come.

Sugar Pop has been delivered to the avionics shop, and will be returning to service soon. We will send out another announcement when we have returned this excellent airplane to service.

I would like to thank everyone who helped make it a reality to get this airplane returned to service. It is your support that keeps us saving lives. Please remember that your donation, regardless of its amount, makes a difference. Most of our funding comes from donations in denominations of under $100. Together, your donations allow us to save the lives of so many pets – over 400 this year alone and almost 1,000 in the past two years. Again, thank you!

Blue Skies,
