Last week we held an informal "party" for all of our staff and the family members that could make it in order to celebrate the 50th birthday of one of our airplanes...PK-MCD. Since leaving the factory in Wichita, Kansas 50 years ago in 1962, MCD has flown on floats and wheels, and lived on the Indonesian islands of Kalimantan and Papua. This Cessna 185 has accumulated almost 24,000 flight hours and countless landings. We even had a cake made and found some special candles.
Of course, whenever we have a get together at our location, it is usually a good excuse to goof around a little bit. We have plenty in our lives to worry and stress about, so we try to take advantage of the lighter moments and make sure we laugh together. The cake was pretty good by the way.
