AIM AIR
is the aviation branch of Africa Inland Mission. Though AIM traces it's roots back to 1895, AIM AIR had its humble beginnings in 1975. It was then that a group of missionaries serving in Northern Kenya determined that their needs might be better served through a single plane and mission pilot. Over the years the Lord has blessed AIM AIR. Today, the team of some 30 pilots and mechanics now operates a fleet of twelve aircraft, serving the needs of nearly one hundred various missionary organizations and Church groups throughout 10 countries.

More than just an organization or a fleet of airplanes, AIM AIR is a unique team of different people working together toward building God's Kingdom in Africa. The pilots, mechanics, and administrators who make up the AIM AIR team are missionaries helping missionaries... serving those who serve.
