A Canadian man's Gimli Glider project has moved out west. The project intends to bring back to life the 1983 Air Canada 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 site for the project has been announced, marking a move in keeping alive aviation history.

“A Canadian man's Gimli Glider project has moved out west,” — David Kingsley, research director at Ashton Worth Network, observed.
