Bahamas Habitat slates Fly-In & Help Out

By Janice Wood · June 27, 2010 ·

Bahamas Habitat’s Fly-In & Help Out mission flight to Eleuthera in the Bahamas is scheduled for Oct. 21- 24th. All interested aircraft owners and pilots are invited to join in the mission group flight, which  serves as a starting point for being involved with Bahamas Habitat and its various mission flying opportunities and disaster relief efforts.

“If you’ve ever wanted to be involved in mission flying, disaster relief flying or just wanted to fly your airplane to the Bahamas, this is the perfect way to learn the ropes while supporting a good cause,” said John Armstrong, president and chairman of Bahamas Habitat. “We had pilots join us from all over for our last Fly-In & Help Out event and in every case the experience really touched their hearts. We can house up to 60 people at Camp Symonette our base camp on Eleuthera. What makes this mission opportunity so unique for aircraft owners is that the Bahamas are easily accessible by aircraft but are so in need that it provides the ideal opportunity for a mission minded pilot to give back to a neighboring community in an exciting and tax-deductible way.”

Pilots and crewmembers participating in the Fly-In & Help Out mission will meet at Fort Pierce Airport (FPR) in Florida on Oct. 21 for lunch and pilot briefings prior to departing to Eleuthera. For more information: BahamasHabitat.org
