Typhoon Haiyan Relief

NTM Aviation is continuing to provide assistance for the relief effort in the Philippines.

Pilots Brian Pruett and Joel Davis flew one of our planes to a larger airport outside of the disaster area where they will stay and fly relief flights.  Zach Keller is also flying our helicopter to that same area.

“Initially we think we will fly government officials and the heads of various aid organizations for aerial surveys and to drop them off in strategic locations where they can help coordinate a way to secure supply lines,”  says Brian.

At this point very few foreign aid agencies are able to get into the disaster areas.  “It is our hope that we can help secure the area by providing air support so that the bigger aid agencies can freely move into position and do their work.

Pray for the pilots as well as their wives and families.  Pilot’s wife Bailey Pruett pleads:  “Pray mostly, though, for the Filipino nationals here who have the task of rebuilding their homes and lives and face the reality of lost loved ones.  Our hearts break for them and those that are still without food and water.  Not a minute goes by that we don’t feel the desperation that so many thousands of people are feeling right now, and our hearts want to help all of them.”
