March 9, 2010 – 7:03am – Tuesday – Titusville, FL – Report submitted by Joe Hurston (Air Mobile Joe)

Looks like the bird is good for another flight! Actually, she checks out better and better each inspection. Airplanes really like to fly and the more one flies, usually the better all systems function. We hope to be heading back to Haiti later this week. Yesterday, I spoke with a group out of Houston. They have requested we fly in communications equipment for a Nursing College in the Jacmel area. Remember the flight I made into Jacmel several weeks ago? It is only 22 nautical miles from Port-Au-Prince. It takes 4-5 hours by road with many dangers, but the flight only takes around 18 minutes. Of course there is a 5000 foot mountain between P-A-P and Jacmel, so one has to do a little maneuvering and fly thru a valley to get there….but 5 hours – 18 minutes. 18 minutes is much better. We’re also speaking with folks who are in the final stages of adoption and may be flying a couple of kids out, but…again, the rules change daily so we will see about that. Spoke with Cherie (my daughter)last night and it looks like Barb will be heading back into Haiti today. Kyle (Cherie’s husband) went back to Haiti yesterday. We are very close to getting our first container cleared thru customs. Now, that is a whole story. We are praying the first major shipment we have made gets thru. Meanwhile, the rebuilding in the village is going well. I have never seen such deep foundations laid! There are many scriptural applications to that. Yesterday evening, I met with a group that is putting together a Benefit Concert for Air Mobile Ministries, specifically to raise the funds for the Engine Overhaul. We are very excited about this event. It will be on April 9th in Viera, Fl. Stay tuned for more details. Got to go,

God Bless!
