February 11, 2010 – Thursday 6:57pm (Eastern U.S. Time) – Titusville, FL – Report submitted by Air Mobile Joe

12 Hours later….the Annual Inspection is going very well! Our team showed up / we met with our IA (Authorized Inspector), laid out the plan and began opening up N19EZ. The airplane is very clean and well maintained. It is going to serve us very well.

While doing the inspection, I received a call from Western Michigan. Several years ago, I had met this mission group and we’ve stayed in touch. I was informed that there is a small community between Port-Au-Prince and Jacmel that has received no food / water since the terrible quake. I just spoke again with the missionary and we discussed how we can help. When we get to P-A-P, we’ll endeavor to find some food from some of the relief agencies. When we get a load, we’ll “jump” over the mountain in the C-337 (22 minute flight) and get some food to hungry folks. Driving across the mountains can be and is likely treacherous. Attacks of food convoys are becoming more common. That is why the airplane is such a blessing! Our Lord knew exactly what He was doing when He prompted Bill Duncklee to donate this aircraft to Air Mobile! We may provide them with a Voyager also. It is so wonderful to be able to do something to help (though it seems small and insignificant). We are so thankful to be able to just do something! We could not do what we do without a lot of folks helping us. Tomorrow, we continue the inspection. Please pray all goes well and we get winging to Haiti soon!! God Bless!! Air Mobile Joe
