Next Weekend To The Bahamas Slated For Thursday, October 29 through Sunday, November 1

Bahamas Habitat said Monday that it's not too late to join in the upcoming "Fly-In & Help Out" weekend to Eleuthera in the Bahamas scheduled for Thursday, October 29th through Sunday, November 1st. The organization is extending an open invitation to all interested aircraft owners and pilots to join in this mission and says it is not too late to register and join the group flight.

"Every trip we have pilots that hear about the Fly-In & Help Out event just a week or two before and jump in to join the group and enjoy an adventure and make a difference. 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," explained John Armstrong, President of Bahamas Habitat.

Pilots and crewmembers participating in the Fly-In & Help Out mission will meet at Fort Pierce, Florida Airport (KFPR) on Thursday, October 29th for lunch and pilot briefings prior to departing to Eleuthera. Lodging and transportation on the island are arranged for the group.

"If you've ever wanted to fly your airplane to the Bahamas, this is the perfect way to learn the ropes while supporting a good cause," Armstrong said. "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've had up to 14 aircraft on previous trips. We can house up to 60 people at Camp Symonette.
The trip is intended to teach people how to make the flight to the Bahamas and connect them with the mission camp there so they can help spread the word to their church and civic groups for future mission opportunities."
