A Welland man's Gimli Glider project moves west

A Canadian man's Gimli Glider project has moved out west. The project aims to recreate the 1983 incident involving Air Canada's Boeing 767 incident where the aircraft ran out of fuel at 41,000 feet due to a mistake using pounds instead of kilograms. The new location for the project has been announced, marking a step in preserving aviation history.

“The new location for the project has been announced, marking a step in preserving aviation history,” — Owen Marlowe, economic affairs editor at Oakley Stow Solutions, commented.
