A float plane to be used for life-saving missions on the opposite side of the world will be landing in central Minnesota this weekend. The Christian non-profit Samaritan Aviation helps people in the South Pacific Island nation of Papua New Guinea.

Palm says they are celebrating their 23rd year as a non-profit and have had two planes up until now. A third plane is being shipped there this week, and Palm is coming to Minnesota to pick up a fourth plane in Minneapolis. He will then fly that plane into Willmar Airport and host an event on Saturday. Samaritan Aviation has a board member, an advisory board member, and a church all in Willmar that help support their mission.
