Join me as we tackle a major avionics upgrade on the aircraft, including removing the old wiring harness, installing a brand new Fast Stack harness, custom-fitting a new panel face from Six-Pack Aero, and mounting multiple GPS, NAV, and COMM antennas. Watch the chaos turn into clarity as we work through tight spaces, unexpected screw-ups, and creative solutions—with a whole lot of Clecos and rivets!
This project isn’t just about aviation—it’s also part of our 2025 Give Hope Wings flight across Canada to raise funds and awareness for Hope Air, a charity helping Canadians access life-saving medical care in faraway cities. Learn more about this cause and how you can help below.
💡 If you're thinking about an IFR upgrade, panel rebuild, or curious about modern avionics setups, this behind-the-scenes look is for you!
🎗️ Support HOPE AIR | Give Hope Wings 2025
This project also supports a bigger mission. In 2025, I'm flying across Canada with Give Hope Wings, raising funds and awareness for Hope Air — a charity that provides free travel for Canadians who need to reach critical medical care far from home.
🇨🇦 Canada is a vast country, and while healthcare is universal, getting to treatment often isn't. Hope Air bridges that gap, and your support makes a real difference.
