GA Recognized for Haitian Relief Efforts

Sen. Begich from the very GA friendly state of Alaska released this message today heralding some of the amazing relief work accomplished by GA pilots and aircraft in the wake of the earthquake in Haiti. Some 4,500 flights were taken and 1 million pounds of cargo were hauled in support of the relief effort. That's pretty impressive when you figure that most GA aircraft don't exactly have the useful load of your average cargo bird. For all those that made the trip, you've got our respect!!
