As Jacek Rejman tinkered around the cockpit, he couldn't help but show off some of the new controls retrofitted in the sleek, tan Piper Navajo, which is headed for a special mission to Tanzania this month.
The crew at Wings of Hope in Chesterfield was waiting on a gauge to be delivered before test flights could begin.
"There's a saying in Tanzania — 'pole-pole' — which means 'slowly.' And I bring Africa with me wherever I go," Rejman said with with a laugh. "It just takes a little bit of time."
