Wings of Love, the newest plane to join Mission Aviation Fellowship’s life-saving fleet, has touched down in Africa.

The aircraft, a Cessna Caravan, had departed from Winnipeg, southern Canada, to begin its 6,000-mile, transatlantic journey to Angola.

The ferry flight reached the Lubango base of aviation charity MAF on 18 February, with Wings of Love replacing the much-loved Wings of Hope – MAF’s longest serving Cessna Caravan.
