Blue News! Gold News!

Blue news: NTM Aviation's new blue R66 turbine helicopter for the Philippines that you prayed for since May 2015 is being delayed by a shipping snag. That means that our helicopter pilots won't have time to do their training in it, since it needs to be sent to the Philippines ASAP.

Gold news: Problem solved! Even before we could ask you to pray, God met the need with a second R66 - a beautiful gold turbine helicopter -- just for training.

The Blue and Gold news: Now the pilots can train in the gold R66 while the blue R66 is prepared for shipping to the Philippines.

Let the Training Begin!

How did this happen? Generous donors saw our need to get more helicopter pilots trained, not just for the Philippines but for meeting the growing demand of turbine helicopters and pilots in every country where we serve. NTM Aviation's fleet of aircraft is now almost 50% helicopters and growing. And we are not the only mission aviation organization moving toward helicopter usage. We are already making plans with another mission agency to use our gold R66 to help them meet some of their turbine helicopter training needs as well.

The timing is crucial! The smaller helicopters already in the Philippines are flying like crazy and one will soon be "out of hours". It is critical that the blue R66 arrive to the Philippines in time to provide a seamless transition of service. Unreached people on the scattered, isolated islands of southern Philippines depend on helicopter service to bring them God's Word.

Thanks to God's amazing provision, we can now rush the blue R66 to the field and use the gold one for advanced turbine helicopter training.

Your partnership continues to be vitally important. Thank the Lord with us for the gold R66. And pray for all the aspects of getting the blue R66 to the Philippines.
