Miami, Florida 19th January, 2011: As a Community project established by the 94th AeroClaims-Aviation Consultant Group (94th ACG) that copied what American Airlines did in 2010 in donating their MD-82 aircraft (N234AA) Benny spawned an idea, simple, bring another Commercial aircraft to the school for the benefit of the students.
The idea was spawned when Benny observed the American Airlines MD-82 move back in 2010 and realized "we could do that". The aircraft a Boeing 737-201-s/n 19421, powered by Pratt & Whitney JT8D-9A's, with U.S. Tail number N205AU was based in Alexandria, Louisiana. The aircraft was built in 1969 and first flew with its original delivery customer Frontier Airlines and then she served with US Air before it was retired and obtained by 94th ACG client, Freeman Leasing.
It was an entire Miami Aviation Community effort in bringing the aircraft from Alexandria, Louisiana (KAEX). Miami Ferry Service, World Fuel, Florida West Airlines, Miami Tech, AAR and Miami-Dade Aviation and many more who all rallied around Benny's idea for the benefit of the Students at the George T. Baker Aviation School.
Miami Ferry Services donated the crew who flew the aircraft from (KAEX) t0 (KMIA) and special thanks goes to Florida West Airlines CEO, Mr Mansour Rasnavad who's relationship with World Fuel assisted by donating fuel for the ferry flight.
The aircraft arrived into Miami from (KAEX) on Tuesday December 28th 2010 and was received by Miami Tech. The 2nd phase to get her over the fence has commenced with the help of MCM Construction company who is assisting to move the aircraft off the airport by crane and to deliver it to the School.
