Fork Lift

The other day MMS Aviation's Facility Maintenance Manager, Dave Shelly, and I were in Hangar C.  MMS recently purchased a good used forklift and Dave was showing me the seat upholstery that was just replaced.  He moved the forklift outside so I could take some pictures of it.

This forklift replaces an old MoToLift from the early fifties that had become very difficult to maintain because many repair parts are unavailable.  Our "new" one is a 2000 Daewoo forklift rated at 4,000 pounds lifting capacity which will serve MMS very well for many years.  A grant from the Tyndale House Foundation provided the funds for this machine which is critical to the maintenance of our facility and our service to the mission aviation community.
