Our Aircraft
We operate two aircraft at Hope From Above Ministries, with a 3rd joining the fleet very soon!
We are SO grateful to God and to a generous HFAM supporter who donated a Cessna 207, identical to to the one we currently operate, to bring the fleet to 3 aircraft. She was recently flown by pilot Russ and HFAM board member and pilot/mechanic Jukka Ovaska, from her former home in Saskatchewan to Ontario. All the necessary changes and checks will get her ready for service in Haiti. Soon after, we'll add a bit of paint to show her new tail number, which will be C-GODL (for See God's Love :) ).
Stay tuned!
In 2021 we purchased our own Cessna 207 aircraft to better meet the growing demand for aviation services in Haiti. This aircraft is able to accommodate more passengers and larger loads of supplies, and is better equipped for medical flights where patients require a stretcher.
Pilot Russ has a Cessna 182, which is a well-equipped aircraft for use on some of Haiti's remote, under-established runways, for the movement of people and supplies throughout Haiti, disaster relief, or movement of missionaries and their supplies.
Introducing our new CESSNA 207!!
The Cessna 207 is both owned and operated by HFAM.
It is the primary aircraft we fly as it is the larger of the two airplanes and can handle more passengers and cargo, and is better-equipped for medi-vac flights.
Her tail number will be C-GODL!!

C-GODV / CESSNA 182
