Yet more news from the fantastic University of Michigan, which is proud to represent our state and the city of Ann Arbor.

The University has introduced its new Survival Flight plane which it can use in the state’s Upper Peninsula. The fixed-wing Cessna Citation Encore CE-560 will be on display at the Houghton County Memorial Airport, about 420 miles northwest of Detroit.

The plane first was used on Oct. 25 to deliver a heart to a transplant patient. Medical School instructor Dr. Brad J. Uren says the Upper Peninsula will be one of the areas served by the plane. U-M Survival Flight transports critically ill or injured patients throughout the continental United States, Canada and Mexico.

The schools fleet also includes three helicopters! With the winter weather coming and roads occasionally impassible, the new plane will surely play a great and important part of operations.

The University of Michigan really is an exciting place to be and when you look at all its facilities , it really makes it one of the best schools in the country.
